Field Notes

Description:

The Asiatic dayflower is an annual herb with stems that are typically decumbent, meaning that they are prostrate at the base but become erect towards the tips, but some individuals may be simply erect. Several animals and fungi use the plant as a food source, with a few species feeding upon it exclusively.
