Heads clustered. Peduncles 2–9 mm, densely and closely puberulent. Involucres 3.5–5 mm. Phyllaries: apices acute, abaxial faces puberulent to villous-puberulent. Corollas white, lobes sparsely villous. Cypselae usually glabrous or sparsely puberulent (near apices), rarely hirtellous on angles. 2n = 34.

Discussion

Intergrades (probable hybrids) between Ageratina aromatica and A. altissima were identified by A. F. Clewell and J. W. Wooten (1971) over a broad area of their sympatry. They also found intergrades between A. aromatica and A. jucunda where their ranges meet.
