Late Blooming Boneset

There is a bit of discrepancy in what to call these leaves, petiolate serrate or petiolate lobed, one thing is for sure and that is you won’t miss this species when it blooms. I don’t think there is often much out besides Spiranthes and Gentians in late September when this species is in bloom. I do still see the occasional goldenrods hanging on; but, most things are working on setting seed.
