seaside daisy, seaside fleabane

| Perennials, 3–20(–30) cm; taprooted, caudex branches relatively short and thick. |
Perennials, 5–30 cm (usually forming dense colonies); rhizomatous, fibrous-rooted, sometimes with branching caudices. |
erect, loosely to closely, sparsely to moderately strigose (hairs 0.1–0.9 mm), usually minutely glandular (glands barely evident), sometimes eglandular. |
procumbent to decumbent-ascending, hirsuto-villous or nearly glabrous, usually minutely glandular. |
basal (usually persistent) and cauline (petioles prominently ciliate at least on proximal portions, hairs spreading, thick-based); basal blades linear-oblanceolate, 20–100 × 1–4 mm, margins entire, faces strigose, eglandular; cauline usually restricted to proximal 1/2 of stems, slightly reduced distally. |
basal (usually persistent) and cauline; basal blades broadly obovate to spatulate, 20–130(–150) × 10–30(–50) mm; cauline little reduced distally (fleshy, bases sometimes subclasping), margins entire or with 2–4 pairs of shallow teeth, faces glabrous or hirsute, eglandular. |
3.5–5(–6) × 7–12 mm. |
7–13 × 15–35 mm. |

Plants from Chaffee and Fremont counties, Colorado, have strigose leaves and the compact habit of Erigeron engelmannii but sparsely spreading-hirsute stems; they may be intermediate between E. engelmannii and E. concinnus. Unusual variation in the pappi of E. engelmannii also suggests that the species needs study and better definition. A. Cronquist observed that “Erigeron engelmannii intergrades completely with E. pumilus, yet has two geographic subspecies of its own, and shows no distributional similarity to the [taxa] of E. pumilus,” and that E. engelmannii is “smaller and more delicate, with shorter finer hairs, and [has] smaller heads with usually fewer ligules.” (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
