Description
Rhizomatous perennial, One to many radiate heads in wide-branching bracteate inflorescences. Inflorescences generally white. Inflorescence bracts generally much smaller than upper stem leaves, involucres 4-7mm high, phyllaries generally bi-colored, papery below and green above, and spreading or slightly recurved to ascending. Lower leaves petiolate and pubescent, upper leaves sessile and usually pubescent.[1][2]
Distinguished from the common Symphyotrichum subspicatum, S. foliaceum, and S. spathulatum by its strongly graduated involucre and outer involucral bracts that are markedly shorter than the inner ones, obtuse and not leaflike. Symphyotrichum ascendens and S. chilense are distinguished by the bracts of their inflorescences, which if present, are mostly erect, greater than 4 times as long as wide, and markedly acute; their rays are usually blue or pinkish (sometimes white).[3]
Bloom Period
July-October
Distribution
Restricted to seasonally wet grasslands and remnant prairies of the Puget Trough of Western Washington and the Willamette Valley, with outlying populations in the Columbia Gorge and Eastern Washington. Threatened in Washington State.[4]
Habitat
Remnant prairie, seasonally wet grasslands.[2]
Associated species include snowberry (Symphoricarpos albus), colonial bentgrass (Agrostis capillaris), goldenrod (Solidago lepida var. salebrosa), white-top aster (Sericocarpus rigidus), Douglas aster (Symphyotrichum subspicatum), and oxeye daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare).[3]
