oak-leaf fleabane
|
| Perennials, 7–25 cm; taprooted, caudices branched. |
|
sprawling or pendent (branched), hirsute, minutely glandular. |
erect to basally ascending (green proximally), proximally villous to villoso-hirsute, distally loosely strigose to hirsute, eglandular. |
cauline; blades cuneate to obovate, 150–400 × 10–20 mm, nearly even-sized to near heads, margins 3-lobed or -dentate (lobes sometimes with shallow secondary lobes or teeth, much narrower than central portion of blades, usually acute), faces hirsute, minutely glandular. |
basal (persistent) and cauline; basal blades oblanceolate to obovate or spatulate, 15–110(–150) × 4–25(–30) mm, margins serrate or crenate to pinnately lobed, faces hirsute to villous, eglandular; cauline blades becoming oblong, gradually reduced distally (reduced to bracts or 0 proximal to arrays, clasping to subclasping). |
5–6 × 8–12 mm. |
2.5–4 × 4.5–10 mm. |
22–30; corollas white, drying pink to pinkish purple, 5–7 mm, laminae not coiling or reflexing. |
100–150; corollas usually blue, sometimes white to pink, 4–6 mm, laminae not coiling or reflexing. |
3–4 mm. |
1.5–2.8 mm. |
in 2–3 series, usually densely villoso-hirsute, densely minutely glandular. |
in (2–)3–4 series (sometimes basally connate), strigose to hirsuto-villous, eglandular or sparsely minutely glandular. |
1–4 (from medial or distal branches). |
(1–)4–16(–50) in corymbiform arrays (from branches distal to midstem). |
ca. 1.5 mm, 2-nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer of setae, inner of 10–15 bristles. |
0.6–0.9 mm, 2-nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer of setae, inner of 10–15 bristles. |
|
annuals, biennials, or short-lived perennials, 10–60 cm; fibrous-rooted, caudices simple. |

Of conservation concern. Erigeron basalticus is in the Center for Plant Conservation’s National Collection of Endangered Plants. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Erigeron quercifolius is primarily of the Atlantic coastal plain. Putative records from Alabama westward to Texas are based on specimens of E. philadelphicus or E. tenuis. Erigeron tenuis sometimes closely approaches E. quercifolius in overall appearance; it is more closely related to E. strigosus. Convergent plants of E. tenuis differ from E. quercifolius in their non-clasping cauline leaves, lanceolate (versus oblanceolate to obovate) phyllaries, and slightly longer cypselae (1–1.2 mm versus 0.6–0.9 mm).
