My 18th wildflower find of spring... by marlboromaam

My 18th wildflower find of spring...

Hypochaeris radicata - also known around here as Hairy Cat's-Ear. The leaves, much smaller than a dandelion's leaves, have hairy tips that look like a cat's ear which is how it got its common name, also a member of the aster family. More info on this wildflower here - http://namethatplant.net/plantdetail.shtml?plant=731
