Gentiana setigera, also known as Mendocino gentian, is a low perennial herb native to southern Oregon and northern California. It can be found in wet areas in the California Coast Ranges, particularly in serpentine soils. The plant has stems that grow along the ground and can reach up to 40 centimeters in length. Its leaves are spoon-shaped near the base and oval-shaped further up the stem. The flowers of this species are bell-shaped and bright blue with a speckled white center. They can appear singly or in small groups. The corolla has four to five diamond-shaped lobes, with sinus appendages that end in thready projections. The fruit of Gentiana setigera is a capsule containing winged seeds.
