The leaves are 6.5–12.5 cm (2+1⁄2–5 in) long, with stringy lobes. The fragrant flower heads are 2.5 to 6.5 cm (1 to 2+1⁄2 in) wide, composed of smaller yellow to white strap-like flowers called "ligules". In the center of the flower head may be an orange to red "button", composed of several immature flowers.
Taxonomy
It is a dicot in the family Asteraceae. The name "glabrata" refers to the leaves being (nearly) hairless.
