--><p>Subspecies petraea is the most isolated of the subspecies and is known only from a single population on the summit of Neil Rock, Jackson County, Oregon. The white petals and predominantly two instead of three involucellar bractlets are distinctive, and its gynodioecious habit is also quite unusual for the species overall. It is likely threatened by fire suppression and possibly by recreational activity and/or mining. Subspecies petraea grows on sandstone with significant deposits of cinnabar rather than the serpentine characteristic of most of the other subspecies.</p>
