Chrysanthemum oreastrum
Chrysanthemum oreastrum is a flowering plant within the family Asteraceae and the genus Chrysanthemum. It is a perennial flowering plant.
Taxonomy
The species was first described in 1878 by Henry Fletcher Hance.When it became understood that Linnaeus's Chrysanthemum, which was typified by a Mediterranean annual species, was distinct from the largely Asian perennial species, these latter, including Dendranthema sinchangense, were initially given names in the genus Dendranthema. In 1999, the genus name Chrysanthemum was conserved for the Asian species, so the name Chrysanthemum oreastrum became acceptable again.
