Please try our next iteration of the Michigan Flora Online here. Beginning on February 1, 2023, michiganflora.net will point to this new site.

The new site offers several benefits over the existing website, including real coordinate mapping, giving a clearer view of the density of documentation as well as more precision about plant distributions and their link to landforms. We will also have the ability to update species pages more regularly, both in terms of new collections and as more existing Michigan specimens are georeferenced. In addition, we have a better photo display, and offer indented keys.

A. A. Reznicek var. texanum

Sandy fields and meadows, including interdunal flats, shore meadows, and oak openings.

Our plants are var. texanum (Planch.) Fernald, by far the commoner and more widespread variety, and a diploid. The tetraploid var. medium differs in having the inner sepals sparsely if at all glandular-ciliate (as well as in fruit characters) and occurs east of Michigan mostly on the east shore of Lake Huron.
