Taxonomy

Description

Native rhizomatous perennial, stem ranging from nearly glabrous to densely wooly-hairy, stem producing a milky juice.[1][2]

Leaves are elliptical, winged petioles towards base, becoming smaller and sessile up the stem.[3] Leaves are generally hairy on both sides, with long, smooth, or barbellate hairs, not glandular, if leaves are subglabular (almost hairless), then the midveins and margins often have short-glandular hairs, leaves tufted at base during anthesis.[2]

Inflorescence consists of yellow ray florets, subtended by an involucre of overlapping gland tipped bracts.[4] Receptacle naked.[2]

Fruit is a ribbed achene, ~3mm. long, pappus whitish or tawny.[5]

Genus comes from Greek hierax, hawk.[2]

Bloom Period

June-August.[3]

Distribution

Central BC to northern California, east to Alberta, Montana and Utah.[2]

Habitat

Forest, meadows, prairies, rocky slopes, stream banks, roadsides, thickets.[2]

Uses

Sx̌ʷyʔiɬpx use of infusion of leaves and roots, taken as a general tonic.[6]

Propagation

See White, Chris, 'Plant Propagation Protocol for Hieracium scouleri' Available at http://courses.washington.edu/esrm412/protocols/protocols_files/forbs_III.htm for propagation information.
