- a dicot in the Asteraceae family -
| The young sticky conzya plant is one of the prettiest plants at the
preserve. The soft, sea foam green leaves gently hug the main stem and
each leaf seems to glow as the early morning sun performs its magic. As
the plant matures the leaves grow further apart. The multiple yellow blooms
are a favorite for local bees, wasps and beetles and the seed heads appear
as spun gold in wintertime. Finches and sparrows enjoy the harvest all
winter long.
