I think this is an Indian Warrior

aka Pedicularis densiflora. In the very least I’m guessing it’s in the Pedicularis genus. I’m looking to my botanically-gifted friends for assistance/confirmation.

Indian Warrior, or another member of the Pedicularis

Saw several off the beaten trail at San Bruno Mountain State Park. My only hesitation are the thorns coming out of each flower (pretty mean, if you ask me), which I haven’t seen examples of elsewhere.

That’s Salvia Spathacea… not Indian Warrior.
