I found this one growing in the Andes of Ecuador at about 12 or 13000 ft. They are extreem little plants and quite common on roadcuts in the higher altitudes. They naturally grow from the cushin plants which cover the ground under the tussock grasses. If you google šPlantago rigidašit will give you a good idea of the habitat. P. rigida is a cool mound forming cushin plant which lives all over the high Andes. I didnt do my homework to find out what species it is but it is definitly an Aa.
