Description:

Description: While blooming wildflowers fill your eyes with color, they can also tickle your nose with perfume. One flower noted for it's sweet, heavy scent is Sitka Valerian (Valeriana sitchensis). A tall plant with square stems, Sitka Valerian flowers bob above the other meadow wildflowers, the breeze easily carrying their scent. Common in subalpine regions. June 18, 2015. NPS Photo. Date: 17 June 2015, 12:57. Source: Sitka Valerian in the Tipsoo Meadows. Author: Mount Rainier National Park from Ashford, WA, United States.
