Ixeris repens is
a perennial herb that grows in sandy soil on seashores. It
propagates by extending rhizomes long underground. The leaves are
thick and have long petioles; even if covered with sand, they can
rise by themselves. The blades are 3-5cm long and wide, palmately
cleft or dissected, with variable patterns. The axils give birth to
peduncles, which set yellow flower heads on tips. The involucres are
about 1cm long and cylindrical. Bloom time: April-October. |
