Eurybia wasatchensis

Herrickia wasatchensis

Eurybia wasatchensis, the Wasatch aster, is a small perennial daisy from Utah that grows from a woody underground base and produces clusters of white or pink flower heads. It is a wild native rather than a common garden plant, so growing it means matching its dry, mountainous habitat.
