Telling us where & what time of year you photographed them would help immensely in ID the plants. Initially thoughts would be towards something in the Sunflower group....

Looks like coreopsis...

^ Hmm, perhaps Coreopsis gigantea or Bitterweed?

fizgig777, at first I also thought it might be something resembles sunflower, maybe a variety of false sunflowers, Heliopsis helianthoides, or another species in that genus..

I would go with Coreopsis. Perhaps Coreopsis pubescens.

I can't see the foliage as clearly as I'd like, but I believe it's Engelmann's Daisy (Engelmannia peristenia)

Cut leaf/Engelmann daisy would be my guess, too. Ours are not blooming in north Texas yet, but does bloom in March further south.

Hee, mine are just coming out of their rosette from winter "storage" now...but in a month I'll probably see blooms.

Yes, I believe the Cut leaf/Engelmann daisy is the winner! As here's another photo of another plant not far away - which looks like it has its distinctive deeply-lobed leaves...

It certainly does look like it.

Err, don't suppose I could prevail upon you Blakrab to collect and send some seeds? I only have one...would like to have a pollinator and get some offspring.

^ Sure, I can keep my eye out...but the problem is by the time they go to seed, they've lost a lot of their identifying features (namely, their flowers). So, it's hard to keep track of wherever these all are when I'm just traipsing around, lol...

Despite the fact that they're suppossedly all through central section of the country, I've only seen them growing in Texas.

^ Lol, well found some more in an open lot by a store here:
