Faits intéressants
Rough fleabane is a delicate native wildflower with slender branching stems topped with small white to pale pink flowers. It occurs in prairies, dry meadows, open woodlands, and disturbed areas. Its airy appearance works particularly well in informal meadow-style plantings. It is generally not an aggressive spreader. It tolerates dry conditions once established.
