Gregg's Mistflower
Gregg's Mistflower (Conoclinium greggii) is a versatile perennial herb that thrives in gravelly, calcareous soils often found along stream beds and overflow areas, and adapts well to various soil types, including sand, loam, clay, and limestone. Preferring medium water use, it flourishes in both full sun and partial shade, often benefiting from seasonal flooding. Gregg's Mistflower serves an excellent ground cover that is a vital nectar source for butterflies, particularly attracting Queen butterflies in the fall, and acts as a larval host for Rawson's Metalmark.
