Jerusalem Artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus)
Observation
I observed this flower on 17 September 2011 while attending the Wildlife Conservation Festival at the John Heinz National Refuge Center in Philadelphia, PA. The plant was spotted along the trail that leads to the lake. There was other vegetation around the plant so I had to hold the flower to get a picture. The plant has a tall stem and opposite leaves with a hairy texture. The flower was yellow and has a center that is similar to the sunflower.
