Dryas drummondii is a species of flowering plant in the rose family known by the common names yellow mountain-avens, yellow dryas, or yellow dryad.[3] It is native to Alaska, Canada, and the Northern United States.[1][3] This species is actinorhizal, able to live in symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing bacteria.[4][5][6]
