| Perennials 30–80 cm; rhizomatous to subrhizomatous, fibrous-rooted, caudices usually relatively short and few branched, thick, woody. |
Annuals (or biennials?), 3.5–30(–50) cm; taprooted. |
erect, sometimes sparsely pilose (hairs 1–2 mm), densely stipitate-glandular. |
erect to ascending, hirsutulous (hairs upcurved), usually eglandular, sometimes minutely glandular (var. arenarius). |
basal (usually withering by flowering) and cauline; basal blades oblanceolate-spatulate, 30–80 × 5–20(–25) mm (bases usually clasping to subclasping), margins entire, faces glabrous, densely stipitate-glandular; cauline blades narrowly lanceolate to oblong-, ovate-, or elliptic-lanceolate, nearly even-sized distally or sometimes mid largest (continuing to immediately proximal to heads). |
basal (sometimes persistent) and cauline or mostly cauline; blades linear to oblanceolate or spatulate, 10–60(–80) × 2–6(–9, or 15) mm, margins entire, lobed, or pinnately dissected, faces sparsely strigose, eglandular. |
6–9 × 10–15(–18) mm. |
3–5 × 5–7(–11) mm. |
75–150; corollas blue to lavender, 9–17 mm (ca. 1 mm wide), laminae coiling. |
22–70 (some positioned among inner phyllaries); corollas white, often with abaxial lilac midstripe, drying white to bluish, 4–7.5 mm, laminae not coiling or reflexing. |
3–4 mm. |
2.2–3 mm (throats indurate and inflated). |
in 2–3(–4) series, densely stipitate-glandular. |
in 2–3(–4) series, hispidulous, minutely glandular. |
1–15(–22) in corymbiform arrays. |
1–12 usually in diffuse arrays (from branches beyond midstems or sometimes clustered distally). |
1.7–2 mm, 2-nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer of (conspicuous) scales, inner of 14–22 bristles. |
1–1.6(–1.8) mm, 2-nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer cartilaginous crowns, inner of 15–18 bristles. |

Erigeron vreelandii is similar to E. speciosus in its perennial duration, tall stature, subclasping, spreading leaves nearly even-sized up the stems, corymbiform arrays, and blue rays; it is distinguished by the prominent vestiture of relatively long stipitate-glandular hairs. Intermediates apparently are formed between the two. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Varieties 3 (3 in the flora). Erigeron bellidiastrum is recognized by its annual duration, upcurved hairs of the stem, relatively few rays, 1-seriate pappi, and by some ray florets consistently produced between the phyllaries, the mature cypselae of these held in place as the phyllaries reflex at maturity.
