Polemonium viscosum, also known as sky pilot, skunkweed, sticky Jacobs-ladder, and sticky polemonium, is a flowering plant found in western North America. It can be found in areas from southern British Columbia to Montana and south to Arizona and New Mexico, typically in high altitude, dry, rocky environments. This perennial herbaceous plant grows up to 30 cm tall and has pinnate leaves with small spoon-shaped leaflets. Its purple flowers are 17-25 mm long. Polemonium viscosum is often grown as an ornamental plant in rock gardens.
