Packera pauciflora, also known as alpine groundsel, is a flowering plant in the aster family that is native to northern North America. It can be found in parts of Canada and the northwestern United States, specifically in subalpine and alpine climates. This perennial herb has thick, toothed leaves and produces one or more erect stems up to half a meter tall. Its inflorescence can bear a single flower head or an array of up to 6 heads, with green to reddish or purplish phyllaries and a variety of colored florets. The name pauciflora, meaning 'few-flowered' in Latin, refers to the plant's small number of flowers.
