Fleabane Daisy

Erigeron divergens

Description 2

Erigeron divergens is a member of the Asteraceae, a worldwide family of over 20,000 species. This particular daisy typically grows in the plant community called desert scrub. Desert annuals like Erigeron divergens germinate soon after the onset of winter rains. The plants then mature and form seeds before the long dry season begins. Seeds are durable and can survive for years, waiting to germinate in a "banner year" when rains are especially heavy.

Distribution in California, USA circa 2001 3

Desert scrub and yellow pine forest from S Sierra Nevada to the Transverse and Peninsular Ranges east to the Desert and Great Basin Provinces; 500-2600 m.
