Buds of Pseudognaphalium obtusifolium...

Commonly known as Fragrant Rabbit Tobacco, Sweet Everlasting, or Catfoot. Native to the Carolinas and Georgia, I was so looking forward to getting some decent shots of their open blooms... Sadly, my yard helpers just yanked them up without a thought after I asked them to please leave them be. More info on this beautiful little wildflower here - http://namethatplant.net/plantdetail.shtml?plant=617

Sorry to miss the flowers, the buds look like fun.

Can't help wondering if it is a fragrant tobacco beloved by rabbits, or a tobacco beloved by fragrant rabbits.

Beautiful and fairly unusual bloom

Fragrant rabbit tobacco... so not only do rabits smoke (do they know it's said to be unhealthy, especially for the gums and teeth), but they use fragrant tobacco... or are the rabits fragrant? 🙃
Nice shot
