Mountain Pink (Zeltnera beyrichii (Torr.) G.Mans.)
Also known as quinineweed, quinine weed, rock centaury; also classified as Centaurium beyrichii (Torr. & A. Gray ex Torr.) B.L. Rob.
↑Notes
We recommend avoiding the use of the common name "rock centaury" both because it can be confused with plants of the Cheirolophus genus, and because this species has been moved out of the Centaurium genus, associated with the common name "Centaury", and reclassified into the Zeltnera genus by most authorities.
