Wild Plant to ID S.E. Michigan, USA
Comments (18)ken_adrian, I took that photo at Island Drive Park in Adrian (which is where I live). Here's what it says about S. marilandica on the U of M herbarium site: Not always easily distinguished from S. lanceolata, though frequently taller and more branched. The sides of the stem in S. marilandica are usually ñ grooved or channeled, while in the other species the sides are usually flat or slightly convex, and the leaves of the latter are often more irregularly toothed (even somewhat incised toward the base). In this photo the stems do seem deeply grooved. I'm going back after the lawn guy leaves and take more photos....See MoreWhite Wild Flower ID S.E. MI, z5

Comments (12)OK, how about this one? I thought I might be able to ID it myself, but half the websites just want to sell me seeds. None of the coreopsis exemplars I clicked on had pointy, sawtoothed leaves. Also diagnostic might be the reddish stems. These are on a chest-high plant whose seeds I had harvested last fall in D.C. from a meadow next to a trail (without paying attention to its foliage). The plant in the meadow was only about waist-high. I'm guessing the difference might be due to plenty of water in my yard and less sunlight....See MoreID for plant with yellow flowers in S.E. Mich z5
