Chrysopsis mariana, known as the Maryland golden-aster, is a plant in the Chrysopsis genus. The Maryland golden-aster ranges from south Ohio to Pennsylvania and Long Island, New York, and the Soldiers Delight Natural Environmental Area in Maryland. Compared to other asters, the Maryland golden-aster has broader leaves and larger flowers. Because of its silky stems, the Maryland golden-asters are also known as silkgrass. Like its relatives the Prairie golden-aster and the Grass-leaved golden-aster, the Maryland golden-aster blooms only from August to October. The Maryland golden-aster grows one to two feet tall.[1]
