DSC01262 Woolly-white (Hymenopappus artemisiaefolius)
At first glance, one might suppose that those white things are petals, but they are not. They are phyllaries, or bracts subtending the flowers. The flowers are the rose-colored structures. They are disk flowers--this composite is lacking ray flowers. Peak bloom time: April.
