Eupatorium Album
''Eupatorium album'', or white thoroughwort, is a herbaceous perennial plant in the family Asteraceae native from the eastern and southern United States, from eastern Texas to Connecticut, inland as far as Indiana. As with other members of the genus '' Eupatorium'', ''Eupatorium album'' flowers with large numbers of small white heads. The flower heads have 4-5 disc florets each, but no ray florets. The plant grows tall, making it one of the shorter ''Eupatorium'' species. ''Eupatorium album'' is capable of hybridizing with other ''Eupatorium'' species including ''Eupatorium sessilifolium'' and '' Eupatorium serotinum''. Its appearance is similar to ''Eupatorium altissimum'', but differs in that the bracts (located at the base of the flower head) taper to a long point. ''Eupatorium album'' grows in dry, open areas such as power lines, old fields, and eroded slopes. It will not grow under a shady canopy, but can be found in some open woods such as pine barrens. ;Varieti ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Carl Linnaeus
Carl Linnaeus (; 23 May 1707 – 10 January 1778), also known after his ennoblement in 1761 as Carl von Linné Blunt (2004), p. 171. (), was a Swedish botanist, zoologist, taxonomist, and physician who formalised binomial nomenclature, the modern system of naming organisms. He is known as the "father of modern taxonomy". Many of his writings were in Latin; his name is rendered in Latin as and, after his 1761 ennoblement, as . Linnaeus was born in Råshult, the countryside of Småland, in southern Sweden. He received most of his higher education at Uppsala University and began giving lectures in botany there in 1730. He lived abroad between 1735 and 1738, where he studied and also published the first edition of his ' in the Netherlands. He then returned to Sweden where he became professor of medicine and botany at Uppsala. In the 1740s, he was sent on several journeys through Sweden to find and classify plants and animals. In the 1750s and 1760s, he continued to collect an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Eupatorium Serotinum
''Eupatorium serotinum'', also known as late boneset or late thoroughwort, is a fall-blooming herbaceous plant native to North America. ''Eupatorium serotinum'' ranges throughout most of the eastern United States, found in every coastal state from Massachusetts to Texas and inland as far as Minnesota and Nebraska. There are reports of one small population in the Canadian Province of Ontario, and other reports of the species on the south side of the Río Grande in northern Mexico. Like other members of the genus ''Eupatorium'', ''Eupatorium serotinum'' is about one to two meters (40–80 inches) tall and has inflorescences containing a large number of tiny white flower heads with 9–15 disc florets but no ray florets. ''Eupatorium serotinum'' grows in open sites (either dry or moist), and can hybridize with ''Eupatorium perfoliatum'' and other members of the genus ''Eupatorium''. Unlike wind-pollinated plants in this genus, ''E. serotinum'' is pollinated by insects. Referen ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Delaware
Delaware ( ) is a state in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States, bordering Maryland to its south and west; Pennsylvania to its north; and New Jersey and the Atlantic Ocean to its east.

Pine Barren
Pine barrens, pine plains, sand plains, or pineland areas occur throughout the U.S. from Florida to Maine (see Atlantic coastal pine barrens) as well as the Midwest, West, and Canada and parts of Eurasia. Perhaps the most well known pine-barrens area is the New Jersey Pine Barrens. "Pine barrens" are generally pine forests in otherwise "barren" and agriculturally difficult areas. Such pine forests often occur on dry, acidic, infertile soils, which also include grasses, forbs, and low shrubs. The most extensive pine barrens occur in large areas of sandy glacial deposits (including outwash plains), lakebeds, and outwash terraces along rivers. Description Botany The most common trees are the jack pine, red pine, pitch pine, blackjack oak, and scrub oak; a scattering of larger oaks is not unusual. The understory includes grasses, sedges, and forbs, many of them common in dry prairies, and rare plants such as the sand-plain gerardia (''Agalinis acuta''). Plants of the heath famil ...

Eupatorium Altissimum
''Eupatorium altissimum'', with the common names tall thoroughwort and tall boneset, is a perennial herbaceous plant in the Asteraceae family with a native range including much of the eastern and central United States and Canada. It is a tall plant found in open woods, prairies, fields, and waste areas, with white flowers that bloom in the late summer and fall. Description ''Eupatorium altissimum'' is a perennial herb sometimes more than 150 cm (5 feet) tall. Leaves and stems are covered with whitish hairs. Leaves are opposite on the stem and either are Sessility (botany), sessile or have very short Petiole (botany), petioles. They are narrow, long and wide. Leaves are lanceolate with 3 prominent veins underneath and teeth appearing only above the middle of the leaves. ''E. altissimum'' produces a large number of small dull white flower heads in a large flat-topped array at the top of the plant. Each head generally has 5 disc florets but no ray florets.

Eupatorium Sessilifolium
''Eupatorium sessilifolium'', commonly called upland boneset or sessile-leaved boneset, is a North American plant species in the family Asteraceae. It is native to the eastern and central United States, found from Maine south to North Carolina and Alabama, and west as far as Arkansas, Kansas, and Minnesota. Description ''Eupatorium sessilifolium'' is a perennial herb with stems that are sometimes more than 100 centimeters (40 inches) tall. They are produced from a woody underground caudice or short rhizome. The top of the stems, where the branching begins to the flower heads, have short hairs, while the lower part of the stems have no hairs. The leaves are arranged in opposite pairs and are toothed. The leaf bases are rounded and the leaves are sessile (lacking stalks), but they do not clasp around the stem. The foliage is dotted with glands. ''Eupatorium sessilifolium'' blooms in August and September (July in the southern part of its range), and the small inflorescences are ...

Asteraceae
The family Asteraceae, alternatively Compositae, consists of over 32,000 known species of flowering plants in over 1,900 genera within the order Asterales. Commonly referred to as the aster, daisy, composite, or sunflower family, Compositae were first described in the year 1740. The number of species in Asteraceae is rivaled only by the Orchidaceae, and which is the larger family is unclear as the quantity of extant species in each family is unknown. Most species of Asteraceae are annual, biennial, or perennial herbaceous plants, but there are also shrubs, vines, and trees. The family has a widespread distribution, from subpolar to tropical regions in a wide variety of habitats. Most occur in hot desert and cold or hot semi-desert climates, and they are found on every continent but Antarctica. The primary common characteristic is the existence of sometimes hundreds of tiny individual florets which are held together by protective involucres in flower heads, or more technicall ...
