Stems prostrate or decumbent, 2–18 cm, retrorsely hairy. Leaves glabrous or sparsely puberulent, especially along margins, (2–)4–24 × 2–8 mm; blade obovate to elliptic.


Phenology: Flowering Jun–Jul.
Habitat: Sagebrush shrublands, scrub oak woodlands, spruce woodlands, talus slopes.
Elevation: 2000–3400 m.

Discussion

Specimens referable to var. procumbens come from Carbon Peak, Kebler Pass, and West Elk Mountains. D. D. Keck (1937) noted the strong resemblance of the type specimen to Penstemon caespitosus subsp. suffruticosus A. Gray (= P. xylus). More material is needed to determine where var. procumbens fits in the P. crandallii/P. caespitosus complex.
