| Perennials, 5–15 cm; stoutly taprooted, caudices usually simple. |
Perennials (sometimes flowering early and appearing annual or biennial), 8–40 cm; usually taprooted (taproots woody or lignescent, early season forms sometimes fibrous-rooted), caudices usually woody, sometimes branched. |
decumbent to basally ascending or erect, moderately villous, stipitate-glandular. |
(often multiple from bases; of previous year often persistent) ascending to spreading (proximally reddish in early season, sometimes proximally woody or lignescent), loosely strigose to villous (proximal hairs sometimes spreading), often sparsely glandular. |
basal (persistent) and cauline; basal blades (1-nerved or weakly 3-nerved) obovate to spatulate, mostly 20–60(–100) × 5–15(–25) mm, margins usually coarsely dentate or incised, sometimes shallowly serrate, faces sparsely to moderately villous, stipitate-glandular; cauline gradually or little reduced distally (bases not clasping). |
basal (often withering by late flowering) and cauline; blades oblanceolate to spatulate, 20–50(–100) × 3–7(–18) mm, gradually reduced distally, margins entire or with 1–2(–3) pairs of teeth, faces loosely strigose (hairs ascending), eglandular. |
5–7 × 9–13 mm. |
3–4.5 × 6–9(–12) mm. |
30–60; corollas white to pink, 5–8 mm, laminae not coiling or reflexing. |
24–65(–170); corollas white, often with abaxial midstripe, often drying lilac, 4–7(–11) mm, laminae not coiling or reflexing. |
3.4–4.7 mm. |
1.7–3.1 mm (throats indurate and slightly inflated). |
in 2–3 series, moderately villous, minutely stipitate-glandular. |
in 2–3 series, sparsely to moderately hirsute, minutely glandular. |
1(–4) (on branches from proximal axils). |
1(–3+, –50 in later season, branches at first from midstem or proximally, later more distal). |
flattened, 1.2–1.4 mm, 2-nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer of setae, inner of 15–20 bristles (weakly barbellate and curled and twisted to at least distal 1/2). |
1.1–1.4 mm, 2-nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer of setae, inner of (5–)12–17 bristles. |

Erigeron oreganus grows in the Columbia River Gorge, primarily on the north side. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Erigeron modestus is a polyploid complex apparently incorporating genes from E. flagellaris, E. tracyi, elements of E divergens, and the Mexican E. pubescens Kunth; arbitrary identifications may be necessary. In most of its range in Texas, E. modestus is not sympatric with any of those other taxa. Forms flowering in early season (Mar–Apr) often have stems red at the bases, dentate basal leaves 30–60(–100) × 5–10(–18) mm, and single, relatively large heads (involucres 9–12 mm diam, ray florets 50–170, corollas 6.5–11 mm) on ebracteate peduncles 5–15 cm. Later season plants have nearly intricately branched stems with more numerous, much smaller, diffusely arranged heads. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
