Erechtites hieracifolia: An annual herb originating in North America. Feeling soft stems grow to 0.5-1.5m in height.

The flower heads comprise delicate tubular flowers, with the corolla's tip pale yellow to green-yellow and its lower parts white. Involucres measure 1-1.5cm long, with inner involucral bracts orderly forming single rows, and outer ones are significantly small.
