Order Asterales, Family Asteraceae, Genus Antennaria

Pussytoes has more species in our area thasn I originally thought! I have to untangle them. Because I originally identified this plant as A. parvifolia I have linked to Al Schneider's page for that species. Meanwhile, just enjoy how beautiful these minute plants really are. For additional information, visit these links: Wikipedia and Southwest Colorado Wildflowers.

The seeds of Antennaria look like a cloud that has settled on the ground!
