Family - Ranunculaceae Stems - Single from a small woody caudex, erect, herbaceous, terete, Variously pubescent but typically with appressed retrorse pubescence, typically simple but vigorous plant will branch, to +1m tall.
Leaves - Alternate, petiolate below, short petiolate to sessile above. Petioles to +/-15cm long, pubescent, flattened adaxially. Blades palmately divided (the main divisions divided again), to +/-9cm long and broad, pubescent. Divisions of the lowest leaves to 5mm broad. Divisions of the upper leaves linear, subacute to acute.
Inflorescence - Terminal bracteate raceme to +30cm long. Each flower subtended by at least a small subulate bract. Lower flowers with foliaceous bracts. Pedicels to 1.5cm long, typically densely retrorse pubescent. Each flower with a pair of opposite bracts at the base. Bracts subulate-linear, to 6mm long, 1mm broad, erect. Flowers - Petals 5, variously shaped, blue to white. 3 petals forming the spur of the corolla. Lateral petals bearded, deeply notched. Lateral spur petals with cylindric bases for holding nectar. Central spur petal linear and thin. Stamens many, surrounding the pistils. Filaments glabrous, greenish-white, compressed, to 6mm long, some curled, others straight. Anthers olive-greenish brown, 1.8-2mm long. Pistils 3, lanate, 5mm long in flower, tapering to the apex and a short glabrous style and stigma (to 1mm long). Sepals 5, violet blue to white, free, to 1cm long, 6-7mm broad, mostly rounded at the apex, glabrous internally, pubescent externally. Spur sepal to 2cm long, rugose.
Flowering - May - June. Habitat - Limestone glades, prairies, and rocky woods, roadsides, railroads in prairies. Origin - Native to U.S. Other info. - This showy species an be found throughout much of Missouri but is most abundant in the Ozark region of the state. The brilliant blue flowers are easy to spot growing on glades and along rocky roadsides. This species and another, D. virescens Nutt., are now considered to be the same species or, at most, subspecies of D. carolinianum. Where the two plants overlap in the wild, they integrade. The resulting plants have light blue flowers as shown below:

Family - Boraginaceae Stems - To .75m tall, from thick taproot, herbaceous, erect, simple, hirsute, subfistulose.
Leaves - Alternate. Basal and lowest cauline leaves petiolate, spatulate, to +25cm long, densely pubescent, entire, scabrous. Upper cauline leaves sessile, clasping, densely pubescent, lanceolate to linear-oblong, to 10cm long, +3cm broad, reduced above, entire, blunt to rounded or subacute at apex.
Inflorescence - Terminal loose cymes(typically paired) in a scorpoid arrangement, indeterminate. Peduncles hirsute. Pedicels to -1cm, hirsute. Flowers - Corolla tubular, funnelform, 5-lobed, to -1cm broad at apex. Tube to 2mm long. Lobes to 3mm long, 2.5mm broad, pale blue. Stamens 5, alternating with corolla lobes, adnate to corolla tube, mostly included. Anthers -1mm long. Ovary of 4 nutlets which appear attached at base. Style to 1.1mm long, arising from between nutlets (nutlets to +5mm long in fruit). Calyx deeply 5-lobed. Lobes to 4mm long, 2.5mm broad, oblong, densely pubescent.
Flowering - April - June. Habitat - Rich rocky woods, slopes, ravines, ridges, thickets, bottoms. Origin - Native to U.S. Other info. - This species can be found mostly in the southern and eastern half of Missouri. The plant is easy to identify in the field because of its big basal leaves, hirsute stems, and pale blue flowers. Medicinally the plant was used by natives to treat a host of ailments. Cancer, gonorrhea, and genital itching were all thought to be helped by drinking a tea made from the roots of the plant. In more recent times the leaves were smoked like tobacco.

Family - Commelinaceae Stems - Erect to ascending, herbaceous, multiple from base, from thick roots, glabrous to sparse pubescent near apex, often with reddish-purple striations, branching, to -1m long.
Leaves - Alternate, sheathing, lanceolate to lance-oblong, attenuate, entire, undulate or not, glabrous, to +11cm long, to +/-2.5cm broad. Margins often reddish. Ocrea scarious-green, with rounded lobes at apex or not. Lobes to 2.5mm long. Margins of the ocrea typically with white cilia.
Inflorescence - Terminal cymes of +/-3 flowers. Cymes subtended (surrounded) by a folded spathe. Spathe margins joined in basal 1/3 to 1/2. Spathe pilose to scabrous because of hispidulous hairs, to 2.5cm long, 2cm broad (when folded), acute.Flowers - Petals 3. 2 upper petals blue, clawed. Claw to 3mm long, white. Limb (sub)orbicular to reniform, to 1.7cm in diameter, glabrous. Lower petal white, reduced, notched at apex, +/-6mm long, 7-8mm broad, often scarious, glabrous. Staminodia 3. All exserted by upper petals. Anthers yellow, 4-lobed. Filaments glabrous, pale yellow to white, to 4mm long. Stamens 3, unequal, one similar to staminodia (and exserted just beyond them), other two more "typical" and exserted by lower petal. Filaments of two "typical" stamens glabrous, to 1.4cm long, lilac, curling inward at apex. Anthers purplish, 2mm long. Style curling at apex, to 5mm long, glabrous, white. Ovary green, 1mm in diameter, 3-locular. Sepals 3, whitish, reduced.
Flowering - May - October. Habitat - Sand and gravel bars, streambanks, wooded slopes, bluffs, glades, roadside ditches. Origin - Native to U.S. Other info. - This species is frequent in the lower 1/2 of the state but is found is several more counties scattered throughout our area. The species has the typical flowers of the genus and has erect stems, (hence the species name), which makes it easy to ID in the field. Steyermark and other authors break the species apart into as many as 3 or more varieties and as many forms. These varieties are determined by leaf width or spathe size. Some integration occurs. For the origins of the genus name, see C. communis in this same section of this website.

Calyx bilabiate, the upper lip single-lobed. The lobe notched at the apex creating two shallow lobes, the lobes acute and 4mm long. The lower lip 3-lobed. Lobes triangular, acuminate, entire, to +/-7mm long. The central lobe less broad than the lateral lobes. all the lobes ciliate-margined. Calyx tube cylindric, green, to 1.5cm long, 7-8mm in diameter, glabrous internally, with a few sparse hairs externally but mostly glabrous. Calyx subtended by a pair of opposite bracts. Bracts to 4.5mm long, 1.5mm broad, green, glabrous. Fruit to +/-4cm long, slightly compressed, glabrous, beaked, with a stalk to +1cm long.
Flowering - May - September. Habitat - Upland rocky woods with acid soils, sandstone glades, ravines, ridges, stream openings. Origin - Native to U.S. Other info. - This popular and striking species can be found in the southern 1/4 of Missouri. The flowers of this species are quite large. The plant is commonly called "Butterfly Pea" not because it is a good butterfly attracting species but because of its big flowers which are butterfly-shaped (papilionaceous). This species would make a good ornamental but does not transplant well and is "picky" about where it will grow.

Family - Asteraceae Stems - To 1.5m tall, glabrous to sparsely strigose and scabrous, herbaceous, branching, erect, with milky sap, from a massive taproot.
Leaves - Alternate. Basal leaves lyrate pinnatifid, resembling those of the genus Taraxacum, to +30cm long, +6cm wide, dentate, pubescent above and below, hirsute on midrib below. Cauline leaves lanceolate to linear, clasping, entire, much reduced. Inflorescence - Typically 1-3 axillary flowers in upper portion of stems. Some flowers terminal. Lower flowers with reduced leaf(bract) subtending. Upper flowers with no bract or bract reduced and scalelike. Involucre - Outer phyllaries 5-6mm long, acute, glabrous, +/-2mm broad, bulbous at base, green. Inner phyllaries to 1.1cm long, 2mm broad, linear, acute, typically with scarious margins and lacerate at apex, green.
Ray flowers - Ligule blue to lilac, 5-toothed at apex, to -2cm long, 5-6mm broad, pubescent externally. Flowers fertile. Anthers blue, 4mm long, connate around style. Style blue above, white below, bifurcate. Stigma blue. Achenes -2mm long in flower. Pappus of short scales. Receptacle flat. Disc flowers - Absent.
Flowering - May - October. Habitat - Roadsides, railroads, disturbed sites, waste ground. Also cultivated. Origin - Native to Eurasia. Other info. - Chicory is an extremely common roadside weed. It is probably the most easily recognizable plant in the state because of its big blue flowers and roadside habitat. During the hot summer months the flowers only stay open a short time in the morning. As the days cool the flowers stay open nearly all day. The plant shown above is form intybus, having the typical blue corolla. Form album Neum. has white corollas. A third form, form roseum Neum., has rose-colored corollas, but this plant is not yet spontaneous in this state.
