Description
Maryland Gold Crown has distinctive fanning leaf tissue along its stem similar to Wingstem, with flaring yellow ray flowers from a pin cushion-like flowerhead. Unlike Wingstem, Verbesina occidentalis the number of petals are fewer, usually 2 to 5, and are unevenly arranged so flowers look off-kilter. Surrounding the stem are opposite, serrated and ovate bright green leaves.
