Columbia Monkshood

Near Banana Lake

Aconitum columbianum. Found in moist areas of the forest. Some plants were
6 feet tall. The elevated hoods on these members of the Buttercup family
suggested their common name.


other sizes: small medium original auto

Beautiful photo, Dad! Amazing to read that some were 6 feet tall! I saw some monkshood on our Alaska trip (at Two Moose Lake) but didn't photograph it.

This is exquisite! It is so like a painting itself that
I would hesitate to copy it in a painting!
