A daisy native to the southwestern United States (Arizona, New Mexico) and northwestern Mexico (Sonora). The Erigeron arizonicus is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae known by the common name Arizona fleabane.
It is believed that the fleabane genus of dry plants repel and are poisonous to fleas.
The Erigeron is closely related to the Old World asters and the true daisies.
The Arizona Daisy is a perennial herb up to 60 cm (2 feet) tall that spreads through underground rhizomes. It produces 1-6 flower heads per branch, each flowering head containing 25–80 white ray florets and many small yellow disc florets.
Arizona daisies' flowering season can vary depending on the exact species and local climate, but it generally occurs from February to October. This annual plant can bloom sporadically throughout the year, but its peak seasons are spring and summer. In fact, if you deadhead the plant, it can continue flowering into autumn.
Thanks for reading. I wish you all the most wonderful of adventures as you hit the road sooner rather than later.
