Plantago daltonii (Plantaginaceae) 3:563

  

Plantago daltonii is an uncommon, small native rosette herb without a taproot, but with thick spreading roots. It is a reasonably common alpine species that grows in cushion plants, alpine sedgelands and grasslands. The leaves are about 2-5cm long and are more-or-less hairless and have a petiole almost as long as the blade. The species otherwise resembles P. tasmanica, which has hairy leaves with a short, stout petiole.
