IOtehosta
Iotehosta is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, native to the Americas. The genus is characterized by its small, annual to perennial herbs, typically growing to a height of 10-50 cm. The leaves are alternate, simple, and often lobed or toothed. The inflorescences are composed of one to several flower heads, each surrounded by a phyllary involucre. The flowers are typically small, with a yellow or white corolla and a central disc. The fruit is a small achene, often with a pappus for dispersal.
Iotehosta is closely related to the genus Eupatorium, and the two genera are often difficult to distinguish.
Iotehosta is not a commonly cultivated genus, but it is of interest to botanists and horticulturists due
