Description
The sight of a salsify wildflower that has turned into a fluffy seed head makes me smile and think "make a wish and blow."
The mature salsify flower head looks similar to a dandelion puff ball sphere but the feathery pappus of the salsify is much larger at 3 or 4 inches and the flower head is also much higher off of the ground. Salsify is also known as goatsbeard. The scientific name is tragopogon dubius; it is part of the asteraceae family.
