Stickseed Lappula Floribunda
The Stickseed receives its name from the bur-like fruits covered with tiny hooks which cling tenaciously to objects that touch them. These fruits are somewhat injurious to animals that eat the plants. The tiny flowers are blue or white and are clustered on graceful stems 2-4 ft. high. They bloom all summer on hillsides and among bushes at 5000-10000 ft.
