Daisy Fleabane
Erigeron annuus


Except for areas of extreme South and North, daisy fleabane is common in almost all places. It grows particularly well on waste ground and uncultivated areas. Daisy fleabane is a coarse annual or biennial that forms in turf with broad, very deeply toothed leaves. As the plant matures, these blades become long, narrow and pointed. Daisy fleabane produces a simple upright stem that branches at the top to produce many flowers. Each flower is less than one inch across with white outside ray petals and bright yellow discs in the center. Daisy fleabane grows most readily when left undisturbed, but it can persist in turf.
