Everlastings and Cudweeds
Gamochaeta
Gamochaeta is a genus of flowering plants in the aster family. There has not always been agreement among botanists regarding its status as a recognized genus, but it has become more accepted in recent years. It currently includes many plants that previously belonged in genus Gnaphalium. Like many species of Gnaphalium, many Gamochaeta are called cudweeds or everlastings.
