|
dwarf daisy, pygmy fleabane
|
| Perennials, often short-lived, 10–100 cm; fibrous- or taprooted, caudices woody, usually simple, stems sometimes rooting adventitiously. |
Perennials, 1–6(–14) cm; taprooted, caudex branches relatively thick, retaining old leaf bases. |
erect to sprawling or decumbent (small leaf tufts in axils of larger leaves), sparsely strigose to glabrate, eglandular. |
erect, hirtellous to sparsely hirsute (hairs straight-spreading, not deflexed), densely minutely glandular. |
basal (and proximal cauline withering by flowering) and cauline; cauline blades elliptic to obovate, mostly 10–40(–50) × 5–13 mm, usually relatively even-sized along stems, margins entire or with 1–2 distal pairs of acute, mucronulate teeth or lobes, faces sparsely and loosely strigose to hirsuto-villous, eglandular. |
basal (persistent) and cauline (petioles prominently ciliate, hairs spreading, thick-based); blades linear to narrowly oblanceolate or subspatulate (usually folding), 20–35(–45) × 2–4 mm; cauline often abruptly reduced distally, margins entire, faces hirsuto-strigose, densely minutely glandular. |
2.5–3.5 × 7–10 mm. |
4–7 × 6–15 mm. |
45–80; corollas 5–8 mm, laminae not or slightly coiling, white, sometimes drying pinkish. |
20–37; corollas usually blue or purple, rarely white, 4–10 mm, laminae tardily, often only slightly, reflexing. |
2–3.1 mm. |
3.7–5.3 mm (throats tubular). |
in 3–4 series, sparsely strigose to hirsuto-villous or glabrate, sometimes minutely glandular. |
in 2–3 series (commonly purplish to purplish black, sometimes only at tips, midvein region greenish), hirsute, densely minutely glandular. |
1–5 (usually from branches distal to midstem). |

1–1.4 mm, 2-nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer of setae, inner of 15–27 bristles. |
2.3–2.8 mm, 2-nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer of inconspicuous, fine setae, inner of 15–25 bristles. |
