Discussion

Plants of Penstemon strictiformis from southwestern Colorado (Montezuma County) and northwestern New Mexico (San Juan County) closely match the type, with large corollas, broad calyx lobes, and large pollen sacs. Plants from southeastern Utah have relatively smaller corollas, narrower calyx lobes, and smaller pollen sacs.

Penstemon strictiformis often is confused with P. strictus; many specimens from southwestern Colorado are difficult to place with certainty due to morphologic intermediacy.
