Chaptalia tomentosa, common name pineland daisy, is a plant species native to the southeastern United States . It has been reported from southern Alabama, Florida, southern Georgia, Louisiana, eastern Texas , southern Mississippi, eastern North Carolina and South Carolina. Some publications report the species from the West Indies as well,[2] but this is based on the assumption that C. azurensis is a synonym of C. tomentosa.[3]
Chaptalia tomentosa is type species for the genus Chaptalia, and is found in sandy soil in bogs, savannahs, and open areas in the Atlantic and Gulf coastal plain.[3][4]
Chaptalia tomentosa is a perennial herb forming a rosette of leaves, but no underground rhizome. Leaves are elliptical, up to 25 cm long, densely gray-white to orange on the underside because of a thick coat of hairs. Ray flowers are cream-colored with a purple streak along the underside. Achenes are glabrous, up to 6 mm long with a slender hairy neck at the top 20-25% as long as the body of the achene.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]
