Erigeron garrettii is a rare North American species of flowering plants in the daisy family known by the common name Garrett’s fleabane.[2]

Erigeron garrettii has been found only in the north-central part of the State of Utah in the western United States.[3] It grows in cracks in cliff faces and in rocky soil between boulders. It grows up to 23 cm (9 inches) tall, and produces a woody taproot. The plant produces only flower head per stem, the head containing golden yellow disc florets surrounded by as many as 25 white ray florets.[2]
