    Dear botanist, Are you able to identify this daisy-like flower? Thank you for your help! Shannon

    Answer

    Dear Shannon, good morning again. The plant you have photographed is Pityopsis falcata (sickle-leaved silk-grass). It is a native member of the composite family that is relatively rare in the region (though it can be locally abundant in the correct habitats). Best wishes.
