    Ursinia anethoides old flowerheads

    Ursinia anethoides old flowerheads
    Author: Ivan Lätti
    Photographer: Thabo Maphisa

    Ursinia usually grows fruits from its disc florets, not the rays. These fruits are mostly flask shaped. There is usually a basal tuft of hairs present.

    The Ursinia anethoides heads in picture show a dry involucre in one case and some ageing disc florets in the other (Vlok and Schutte-Vlok, 2015; Bond and Goldblatt, 1984; Gledhill, 1981; iNaturalist).
