Question
Hello, I am trying to determine the identity of this beggar's ticks. I can't decide beween B. frondosa and B vulgata, but am leaning toward the Devil's beggar's ticks because of the deep yellow-orange pigmentation at the apex of the corolla. Could that be it, or might it be something else? Thanks!
Answer
Dear sldz22, good morning again! Yes, I agree that you have Bidens frondosa. The number of involucral bracts and corolla morphology (that you noted) all support this determination.
