Discussion
Variety ledifolius has narrowly lanceolate to linear leaves that are initially strongly villous adaxially and often strongly villous-woolly abaxially, obscuring the veins between the revolute margins. The adaxial surfaces are usually glabrescent; vestiture is not very dense in sericeous plants.
Here, var. ledifolius comprises intermediates between var. intermontanus and var. intricatus representing hybrids and introgressants that together form breeding populations in zones of parental overlap and in regions outside the range of either parent. Variety ledifolius is considered to be polyphyletic and is much more variable than either parent. Some specimens have relatively small leaves approaching those in var. intricatus. Some specimens have larger long-shoot leaves as in var. intermontanus (with diminished [glabrescent] vestiture and narrower margins) and short-shoot leaves as in var. ledifolius.
