Question
Hello! I recently moved to Middlesex County, Massachusetts. I have two plants I am seeing in the woods behind my home that I would like help identifying. Thank you!
Answer
Dear SNB96P, the first image may be Tussilago farfara (coltsfoot). The leaf blades should have a rubbery feeling and have lots of gray hairs on the undersurface. The second image may be Eurybia divaricata (white wood-aster). This is a common species of forests and forest borders. Best wishes.
