|discussion=<p>Plants recognized as <i></i>var.<i> scribneri</i> are smaller but otherwise essentially similar to typical plants, except for a tendency to produce bluish rays. They occur mostly at higher elevations than more typical plants. P. Lesica (2005) maintained <i></i>var.<i> scribneri</i> and mapped the two varietites as essentially congruent in geographic range.</p>
