Iliamna Ruvularis is a rare and precious flowering plant native to North America. Its name comes from the Latin "Iliamna," meaning "starry," and "Ruvularis," meaning "stream." However, there are also other names that it goes by, including Mountain Hollyhock, Wild Rose Mallow, and Streambank Wild Hollyhock. These synonyms help to describe the plant's appearance and habitat, as it grows in rocky mountain streams and rivers, and has flowers resembling hollyhocks and roses. Its scientific name may be used in academic and scientific contexts, but these other names make it easier for non-experts to understand and appreciate this beautiful plant.
