Description
Claytonia spring beauty is a genus of flowering plants native to North America, Central America, and Asia. Claytonia perfoliata, the species for which the term miner`s lettuce was coined, is distributed throughout the Mountain West of North America in moist soils and prefers areas that have been recently disturbed. The species got its name due to its use as a fresh salad green by miners in the 1849 Gold Rush in California.
