White Panicle Aster

Asteraceae

CAYUGA FLORA (1926) NOTES: Damp or rather dry roadsides and thickets ; common, especially in heavy soil. Sept.-Oct. Que. to Mont., southw. to Va., La., and Mo. ; infrequent on the Coastal Plain. Exceedingly variable as to habit, density of inflorescence, size of heads, length of rays, and size and shape of leaves. An attempt has been made to separate the smaller-headed forms, as A. Tradescanti, from those with larger heads (A. paniculatus), but the intermediates are as numerous as, if not more numerous than, the extremes. So far, it has not been possible to draw any lines in the local material between the multitude of forms of this species, or to find any factors with which the forms are connected. It has seemed best to employ the name A. paniculatus for the local plants, as the exact status of A. Tradescanti is in doubt; the latter species may still be distinct elsewhere, and possibly based on other characters.
