Today I stopped to photograph a fairly ubiquitous yellow flower, very dandelion-like but much taller, with a slender green stem. The flower is almost certainly Two-flowered Cynthia (Krigia biflora), a wildflower in the Aster family native to most of the Eastern US and north into Canada. The flower head is quite lovely when viewed-close up — not as similar in form to a dandelion as I had assumed at first glance.
