As described by Gillian Price:
Lime green stamens protrude from light yellow tube flowers crowded together on spikes. Multitudes of long wavy leaves grow up the stems.
While the name means ‘small bell’, the tag derives from the Greek for an ear of corn, referring to the shape of the flowerhead.
This specimen was pictured near the Rufikopf cable car station, high above Lech, on 25 July 2018. In all our visits to the Alps, we hadn’t noticed this flower before, despite its ‘medium’ size.
