Verbesina encelioides


Verbesina encelioides.  This was found growing wild under a railroad trestle at 4th St. just north of Gratiot St. in downtown St. Louis, Missouri.  This is the first time I've ever seen this species, it looks much different than our native Verbesina that is common in Indiana, Verbesina alterniflora, also called wingstem.
