Discussion
Delphinium patens subsp. montanum is usually found on drier, leeward sides of mountain ranges; subsp. hepaticoideum is found on wetter, windward sides of many of the same mountain ranges.
Delphinium patens subsp. montanum is likely to be confused with D. gracilentum or D. nuttallianum; see discussion under those species for distinguishing features.
Hybrids with D. umbraculorum are known.
