| Morning,
Picked this up at a Master Gardeners' sale labeled as "Bachelor's Button." Expected it to be Centaurea montana, which it is not. Also isn't C. maculosa, the invasive knapweed. So! Who is it? Foliage is in a rosette and is hirsute. Flowers are thistle-like and are popular with butterflies. |
