Plant Description
For the Lomatium genus, mature fruit shape, aspect ratio, and pedicel length are diagnostic.[2]
Native perennial, 2-9 dm tall, growing from an enlarged taproot.[3]
Leaves are glaucous, 1-3 times compound, leaflets are lanceolate to ovate in shape.[3] Plants are generally acaulescent, occasionally caulescent.[2]
Inflorescence of compound umbels, flowers pale yellow and small, stalks of unequal length, involucels lacking.[4] Often the peduncles are swollen and hollow at the base of the umbel.[3]
Fruits are oblong to elliptic, 7-15 mm long, sometimes with beaked tip, ribs distinct with wings up to 1/2 the width of the body.[4]
Bloom Period
April-June.[5]
Distribution
Both sides of Cascades, southern BC to central California, Idaho, Nevada, and western Utah.[2]
Habitat
Dry, open areas; common in shrub-steppe, but found in mountain meadows.[5]
Uses
Many Lomatium species are important food and medicine plants.
Hul'qumi'num and Lekwungen use of seeds, chewed for colds or sore throats. [6]
Kwakwaka'wakw use of chewed seeds applied on head for headaches.[6]
Kwakwaka'wakw use of infusion of seeds, taken by pregnant people to support an easy delivery.[7]
Nlaka'pamux use as food, roots baked, stems peeled, leaves and immature fruits as a flavoring in other foods.[8]
Propagation
Seeds benefit from stratification, slow to establish. Seeds germinated within 1-2 weeks. [9]
Seed
Seed sample from: 2011
Average Measurement: 10.7 x 4.9 x 0.9
Measurement Range: L: 9 – 12.5, W: 4 – 5.75, D: 0.5 – 1.1
Features
Shape: Seeds widely winged and schizoid. Hilum puckered.
Color: Wings and ribs off-white to tan. Hilum is darker. Outer seed face has light to dark brown center, bisected by three tan ribs that cross longitudinally from hilum to opposite apex. Inner seed face is bisected by one major rib, and then has darker brown stripes mixed with tan stripes.
Surface: Seeds smooth and matte.
