Leaves grow to 2 inches in length and have up to 11 leaflets per leaf. The plant typically grows in rich soil in pine forests and along streams at elevations between 6500 - 8500 feet.
 

The Agrimonia in these pictures was photographed near Sycamore Canyon southwest of Flagstaff.

Agrimonia blooms between July - September and produces yellow flowers with 5 petals to 5/16 inches in width that grow along a slender spike.
