Gentianopsis thermalis the Rocky Mountain Fringed Gentian is native to Colorado, Montana, Idaho, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming. Both the common and generic names of this group come from that of King Gentius of Illyria, who, according to the Ancient Roman naturalist Pliny, discovered the medicinal qualities of the roots for use as an emetic, cathartic, and tonic.
