Re: Purpletop

In this, the Dallas  TX  region, P.t. is common on rural roadsides alongside
damp ditches.  You don't tell us what authorities you have already
consulted, so at the risk of idiocy I suggest you try The Tallgrass
Restoration Handbook (Packard & Mutel), Flora of the Great Plains (Great
Plains Flora Assn),  Gould, Hitchcock.  The other authorities that I have
consulted do not mention it, so I regret I cannot help.  You seem to have
hit on a little-reported species:   congratulations!

I would really appreciate being put on your list of recipients when you have
got it all together for publication
