Erigeron piperianus is a species of flowering plant in the daisy family known by the common name Piper’s fleabane.[1] It has been found only in the state of Washington in the northwestern United States.[2]
Erigeron piperianus is a small perennial herb rarely more than 12 centimeters (4.8 inches) tall, producing a woody taproot. The plant generally produces only 1 flower head per stem. Each head has 25–40 yellow ray florets surrounding numerous yellow disc florets. The plant grows in dry, open, relatively flat land, often with sagebrush.[1]
