Brown Knapweed (Centaurea jacea)Observer
sara_jane_barnesDescription
Growing about 2’ high on edge of mesic woods near lake; partial sun; leaves simple, with few teeth or lobes (unlike the compound leaves of Spotted knapweed); the fringed bracts’ dark purple color doesn’t quite match that of other Brown knapweeds. I’m wondering if this particular plant could be a hybrid of sorts, maybe between C. nigra and C. jacea. Thoughts?
