Daisy Fleabane

Flowering heads are rather small, and display about 80 (range 50-100) white or blue ray flowers, that surround a cluster of numerous, yellow disc flowers. Involucral bracts are elongate, lance-shaped, and hairy. Leaves are arranged individually on the stem. Upper leaves are elongate, lance-shaped, and have smooth margins with hairs. Lower leaves are lance-shaped to ob-lance shaped, and have margins with hairs and several teeth that may be large and coarse or small and inconspicuous. Leaves are evenly spaced and attach to the stem either directly (upper leaves) or by winged petioles (lower leaves). The stem is covered with both erect and folded hairs. Occurs from May into October, in prairies, fields, and roadsides. Native to N. A.
