Short-leaved gentian ( Gentiana brachyphylla,
Kurzblatt-Enzian) in wet meadow between grasses and mosses.
Gentiana brachyphylla thrives in rocky, calcareous meadows and slopes at high elevations.
Its flowers are an important nectar source for specialized pollinators like bumblebees and other long-tongued insects. As an indicator of healthy alpine ecosystems, its presence signals undisturbed, species-rich habitats.
A valuable alpine plant supporting pollinators and alpine biodiversity, adapted to survive in harsh mountain environments.
