Phenology
Flowers late May to June.
Diagnostic characteristics
Penstemon goodrichii isn't likely to be mistaken for other regional species within its known distribution.
Species range
This species is known only from the Lapoint-Tridell-Whiterocks region in Duchesne and Uintah Counties, Utah.
Threats or limiting factors
Threatened by energy exploration and development, mining, grazing, residential development, and drought. Residential and to a lesser extent commercial development in the Lapoint-Tridell-Whiterocks vicinity may also be a threat. Many plants occur on non-federal lands which have no formal protection (Alexander 2016, J. Spencer, pers. comm., 2022).
