Description

Easily confused with Epilobium montanum and the very rare E. lanceolatum , it can be differentiated from these two by the absence of erect glandular trichomes on its calyx and fruit, present on E. montanum and E. lanceolatum. [2]

Distribution and habitat

It is a rare species. Its native range is Europe to Western Siberia. [1] Within Croatia, it is present only in the western part, in the Mountain and West Pannonian macroregions (and possibly East Pannonian). [2]

It occurs on silicate substrates, including in wet places. [2]
