scepter-bearing fleabane
|
| Perennials, 3–8 dm; rhizomatous, fibrous-rooted, caudices relatively thick. |
Annuals, 3–8 cm; taprooted. |
erect, loosely strigose to glabrate, sometimes hirsuto-villous proximally, eglandular. |
(single or multiple) ascending from bases, moderately hirsuto-hirtellous (hairs spreading-ascending, mostly on ribs, bases thickened), minutely glandular. |
basal (usually persistent) and cauline; basal and proximal cauline blades often prominently 3-nerved, oblanceolate-spatulate to elliptic-spatulate, 80–200 × 15–35 mm, margins usually coarsely dentate (teeth 1–5 pairs), sometimes entire, faces weakly strigose to hirsute, eglandular; cauline blades becoming lanceolate to linear, sometimes ovate, gradually reduced distally (bases weakly subclasping or not clasping). |
mostly cauline; blades linear to linear-oblanceolate, 10–30 × 0.5–1.5 mm (proximal rarely 4 mm wide), margins entire or proximalmost with 1–2 pairs of teeth, faces loosely ascending-strigose, minutely glandular. |
6–10 × (10–)12–16(–20) mm. |
3–3.5 × 4–6 mm. |
45–80; corollas white to pinkish purple, 10–15 mm, laminae coiling at tips. |
(60–)85–130(–195); corollas white, drying purple, less often pink to bluish, 3.8–5 mm, laminae downward curving-reflexing. |
2.5–4 mm. |
1.8–2.3 mm (throats indurate and inflated). |
in 3(–4) series, glabrous or moderately villous to white-hirsuto-villous (sometimes only at peduncle-involucre region), densely minutely glandular. |
in 3–4 series, sparsely hirsuto-strigose, minutely glandular. |
1–4(–7) (from branches distal to midstem). |
20–50+ in loosely corymbiform arrays (buds erect). |
2–2.8 mm, 2(–4)-nerved, faces moderately to densely strigose; pappi: outer of setae, inner of 18–32 bristles. |
0.6–0.7 mm, 2-nerved (nerves orange), faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer 0 or scales or setae, inner of 9–14 bristles. |

Of conservation concern. Erigeron sceptrifer is similar in habit to E. divergens; it has stem hairs only along the ribs, erect (versus nodding) buds, pappi of more bristles, without a conspicuous outer series, reflexing ray laminae, and orange cypselar nerves.
