Description
This is a perennial herb forming tufts of erect leaves rosetted around stems up to 30 centimeters tall. The leaves are up to 15 centimeters long and are made up of several pairs of lobed leaflets coated in silvery hairs. The inflorescence atop the erect stem is headlike clusters of white or pinkish flowers, each with petals 3 or 4 millimeters long.
Distribution
It is endemic to the Sierra Nevada of California, where it grows in forests and mountain meadows.

gollark: So people will have to plug numbers into the accursedly long approximation™ instead?
gollark: I think it's smarter to assume/have basically-reliable-when-running individual nodes and build redundancy in at a higher level.
gollark: Probably nobody wants to have to deal with primitives which might randomly not work fully or reason about all the underlying weirdness continuously, and with 2/3 of the nodes not doing anything you'll be wasting a lot of space.
