Catchfly Prairie Gentian grows to 12" to 18" high in the Mobile Area. These plants were growing in very calcareous environment near a concrete plant on Telegraph Road, in North Mobile, Alabama. I have also seen Catchfly Prairie Gentian growing along the margins of crushed limestone roads in South Mobile. These plants were photographed in mid August.

Gentianaceae - Gentian family
