| Perennials, 2–10 cm; taprooted, caudices multicipital or branches relatively long and thick to relatively slender, lignescent. |
Annuals, biennials, or short-lived perennials, 30–70 cm; fibrous-rooted, caudices simple, sometimes lignescent, sometimes producing rhizomes that bear leaf tufts at upturned ends. |
erect to ascending, glabrous or sparsely strigose, sometimes sparsely villosulous distally, eglandular. |
erect or ascending, sparsely to moderately strigose to strigillose or hirsuto-strigillose (hairs usually ascending, rarely spreading, 0.1–1.2 mm), eglandular. |
basal, sometimes few cauline; blades oblanceolate to spatulate (usually folding), 10–40 × 2–7 mm, cauline bractlike or 0, margins entire, faces glabrous or glabrate, eglandular. |
basal (usually persistent through flowering) and cauline; basal blades spatulate to broadly or narrowly oblanceolate to linear, (10–)30–150(–170) × 5–15(–21) mm; cauline usually gradually reduced distally, continuing to near heads, margins entire or shallowly to deeply serrate or crenate, faces glabrous or glabrate to sparsely strigose or strigoso-hirsute, eglandular. |
5–8 × 7–13 mm. |
(2–)3–4 × 5–12 mm. |
15–40; corollas white, 6–10 mm, laminae not coiling or reflexing, straight. |
50–100; corollas white, less commonly pinkish or bluish, 4–6 mm, laminae coiling. |
3.6–4.5 mm. |
1.5–2.5 mm (throats sometimes slightly indurate and inflated). |
in 2–3 series (commonly purplish), sparsely to moderately hirsuto-villous, sometimes sparsely minutely glandular. |
in 2–4 series, glabrous, strigose, or sparsely hirsute, sometimes minutely glandular. |
1. |
10–200+ in loosely corymbiform to paniculiform-corymbiform arrays (on distal branches). |
3.2–3.5 mm, 2-nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer of setae, inner of 25–35 (stramineous, dull) bristles. |
(0.5–)0.9–1.2 mm, 2-nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer crowns of setae or scales, inner 0 (rays) or of 8–15 bristles (disc). |

Erigeron evermannii is superficially similar to E. leiomerus and is sometimes misidentified as such; the latter has wider, more numerous, and merely glandular phyllaries, reflexing rays, non-folding leaves, and leafier stems.
