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.

Borders of diverse forests and roadsides, trails and recent clearings; often in moist ground, even on floodplains and at edges of swamps; fields and disturbed places.
Robust plants, as often seen at recently disturbed roadsides, logged forests, or building sites, may tower over a person and have a massive ± cylindrical inflorescence. Leaf lobing is variable, as in other species in the genus.
