Description


Crepis vesicaria subsp. taraxacifolia reaches 4 ft (120 cm) in height, with each of many branches producing yellow, dandelion-like flower heads at the tips.[2]

At the base of the plant are long leaves 4 to 14 in (10 to 36 cm). Smaller leaves connect directly to the stem. Leaves are irregularly and deeply lobed. [2]

The underside of each flower head has two layers of leaf-like phyllaries. The inner phyllaries are longer and pointed, and often curl back away from the flower head. The outer layer of phyllaries is substantially shorter.[2]
