Flaveria brownii is a perennial herb up to 70round=0.5NaNround=0.5 tall. Stems sometimes grow straight up, sometimes reclining on the ground. Leaves are long and narrow, up to 12round=0.5NaNround=0.5 long. One plant can sometimes produce 100 or more flower heads in a loose, branching array, each head with 5-10 yellow disc flowers. Sometimes the head also contains one single ray flower.[2] [3]
