  • Question

    I photographed what I thought was a hawkweed flower, but have come a crossed a reference that identifies the flower as "fall dandelion." The basal leaves do not appear to be scalloped. It was growing in a crack of asphalt bordering a creek. Thank you in advance. CY

    Answer

    Dear califyank, I cannot identify your plant without knowing what part of the world it hails from. If you can let me know where the photograph was taken, I can try to help you further. I can be reached at ahaines[at]newenglandwild.org.
