Craspedia globosa [Filler #48]

Day 1 of a clear liquid diet. No exercise. No food. No photos. So this is a filler from our time in Gloucester with Jenny & Steve. ID comes from good friend, Jeanne: Thank you! Here's her explanation: “Can’t claim much credit. It looked like the stem of a dandelion, and I know that the leaves of a dandelion are close to the ground in a rosette. I just put the words ‘rosette with yellow flowers’ in the Google search bar. There were many photos that popped up and I just kept going down the page, until I saw something that looked like your photo.” Why couldn't *I* think of that? But that's partly why/how Jeanne's a master gardener!
