I often make note of what plants are still in bloom on the
first of November. I didn't do that this year, but I am sure that it
would have been a larger list than usual, as it has been so very mild
and sunny this fall. However yesterday and today (29/30
November) while walking to and from work I made note of plants still
in bloom at the end of the month. Most of these were in south-facing
or sheltered spots, in disturbed soils, and were not abundant
anywhere. If I had been able to check a wider variety of places I am
sure that I would find more than this, but I was limited by the urban
habitats I was in.
Achillea millefolium* Yarrow
Aster lateriflorus Calico Aster
Aster novi-belgii New York Aster
Daucus carota* Queen Anne's Lace
Galinsoga quadriradiata* Quickweed
Leontodon autumnalis* Fall Dandelion
Lepidium densiflorum* Pepper Grass
Matricaria matricarioides* Pineapple Weed
Medicago lupulina* Black Medick
Senecio vulgaris* Common Groundsel
Senecio viscosus* Clammy Groundsel
Taraxacum officinale* Common Dandelion
Trifolium pratense* Red Clover
Trifolium repens* White Clover
The majority of these flowers, marked with an asterisk *,
are identified as aliens in Zinck's edition of Roland's Flora of Nova Scotia.
Cheers,
