Tragopogon mirus is a "recent" allotetraploid formed from T. dubius X T. porrifolius. "T. mirus" is found in numerous locations throughout Eastern Washington. Chromosome numbers and pollen viabilities were not examined for the plants shown below, therefore, some or all of the images shown may represent diploid hybirds between T. dubius and T. porrifolius. Characteristics found in these images do represent those found in T. mirus.
