One plant in full flower, the rest like this. I had the impression there might’ve been an early flowering Undescribed variant in the Mountians

D. Jones in his 2008 Field Guide had suggested under B. montanus the early flowering ones is probably an undescribed species but no further work appears to have been done. He was talking about early Flowering as September and this still July, so even earlier. Without any alternative we have just included these early one with B. montanus.
