Summary edit

Description Neat wildflower at high elevation on Alto Plano in Argentina, called "yareta". Forms these cool big old mounds o' flower. It looks remarkably like New Zealand's "vegetable sheep" (Raoulia spp.) and somewhat like purple saxifrage (Saxifraga oppositifolioa) in the Pacific Northwest and Canadian arctic. Interestingly, all three are completely unrelated: yareta is a carrot, vegetable sheep is an aster, and the saxifrage (obviously) is a saxifrage.
