Bigelowia nudata, the pineland rayless goldenrod,[2] is a species of North American flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is native to the coastal plain of the southeastern United States (from eastern LouisianatoNorth Carolina).[3]
Bigelowia nudata is a sub-shrub that grows up to 70 cm (28 inches) tall, often forming clumps. Most of the leaves are in a rosette near the ground, with smaller and narrower leaves on the stems. Flower heads are small, yellow, and displayed in flat-topped arrays, each with 2-6 disc florets but no ray florets. The plants generally grow in swamps and bogs.[4][5]
