Plant Notes:Carolina Woolly White is a native herbaceous biennial or short-lived perennial in the Sunflower family (Asteraceae). It occurs in the southern half of Alabama. Carolina Woolly White grows in sandhills, in clearings in sandy pine or pine-oak woodlands, on roadsides, and along railroads. It is a biennial or short-lived perennial forming a rosette with a large tap root. Solitary erect flowering stems 1-3 feet in height are produced from each rosette. The stems are angular, floccose (with woolly tufts or long soft hairs), unbranched below the inflorescence, and usually reddish-purple in color. Leaves are basal and cauline. The basal leaves form a rosette, stem leaves are alternate. Leaves are petiolate (upper stem leaves may be sessile), lobed or 1-2 times pinnately dissected, glabrous or floccose above, and tomentose below. Flowers are produced in 20-100 heads arranged in corymbs. The heads have large ovate phyllaries that are white with a green center. Ray flowers are absent, disc flowers are 20-80 and white in color. The fruit is an angled achene.—A. Diamond
