puberulent
puberulous

The petioles of this species are puberulent and grow to approximately 4 cm.

The upper florets are puberulent at the bases and apices.

The perianth is glabrous or puberulent outside and densely pubescent inside.

The blades range from glabrous to puberulent and have scabrescent, or slightly rough, margins.

The flower bracts are broadly ovate in shape with puberulent hairs and shiny.

The foliage is scabrid, crisped-villous or puberulent with yellow glandular hairs.

Rachis, which is the main axis of the inflorescence, and peduncles are puberulent to somewhat tomentulose.

They hang from puberulent pedicels 2.4-5 cm long in clusters of a few flowers, appearing before or with the leaves in early spring.

Stems glabrous or sparsely puberulent with glandular and eglandular hairs less than 0.5 mm long.

Calyx is gamo-sepalous, about 0.15 in long, somewhat puberulent, obtusely 5-ribbed and 5-lobed with obtuse, ciliate lobes.

Their apices are acute to acuminate while the surfaces are glabrous, puberulent, or hirsute-ciliate, meaning with longer, shaggier hairs.

It is a small puberulent orchid with only cauline leaves in an upright stem, which are clasping, elliptic to lanceolate, parallel-veined and plicate.

The stems of Delphinium scopulorum are 50-120 cm in length and have a base that is reddish, puberulent, with midstems that are glabrous to subglabrous.

The only mature parts that retain an indumentum are the inflorescence and tendrils, which bear an inconspicuously puberulent covering of simple, black hairs of around 0.3 mm.

The leaf sheaths are cylindrical, sometimes striped with red, and typically glabrous, but usually have margins that are puberulent or pilose, meaning lined with fine, soft hairs.

The leaves are glabrous on both surfaces or sparsely puberulent beneath only when young; the leaves mostly triplinerved or sometimes inconspicuously five-nerved, with conspicuous midrib on both surfaces.

The pubescence on the stems is variable, but common patterns include a line of hair continuous with the leaf sheath, or they may be glabrous basally, meaning hairless, and puberulent towards the extremities, that is covered with fine hairs.
