Wikipedia Abstract

Antennaria dioica (Mountain Everlasting, stoloniferous pussytoes, catsfoot or cudweed) is a Eurasian and North American species of flowering plants in the Asteraceae family. It is found in cool northern and mountainous regions of Europe and northern Asia (Russia, Mongolia, Japan, Kazakhstan, China (Xinjiang, Heilongjiang, Gansu)), and also in North America in Alaska only. It is dioecious, but can also reproduce without fertilisation. It is found in groups which can be all-female colonies, all-male colonies, and also mixed colonies. The male plants have whiter flower heads than female plants. \n*
