Plant Notes:Hyssop Leaf Golden Aster is a native herbaceous short-lived perennial in the Sunflower family (Asteraceae). It is native to the southern third of Alabama. Hyssop Leaf Golden Aster grows in sandhills, in scrub oak woodlands, and in dry longleaf pinelands. It is a perennial with a tap root. Basal rosettes of offsets are often present and densely wooly. Basal and lower stem leaves are often withered at flowering time. Flowering stems are from 1-3 feet in height. They are erect or ascending, and unbranched below the inflorescence. Stem leaves are sessile, lanceolate to oblanceolate in outline, with long pilose margins. The leaf surfaces are glabrous to sparsely pilose. The lower stem leaves are spreading and the upper stem leaves are appressed. The stem leaves are gradually reduced upwards. Both the upper stem and upper stem leaves may be glandular. Flowers are produced in heads. The heads are arranged in umbelliform arrays. Each head has 16-30 yellow ray flowers and 25-70 yellow disc flowers. The phyllary apices are spreading and the faces are glabrate or glandular. The fruit is an achene. Hyssop Leaf Golden Aster is not usually available from nurseries. It is however easy to grow from seed. Plants require a well-draining sandy soil and full sun.--A. Diamond
