Are Leontopodium and Sandersonia both native to Europe?
Leontopodium Leontopodium is a genus of plants in the Asteraceae family (which also includes daisies and sunflowers). The genus is native to Europe and Asia. The fuzzy and somewhat stocky "petals" (technically, bracts) could be thought of as somewhat resembling lions' paws —hence the genus name combining "léōn" (lion) and "pódion" (foot).
Vernonia blodgettii Vernonia blodgettii (Florida ironweed, Blodgett's ironweed) is a species of perennial plant from Asteraceae family that is native to Florida and the Bahamas.
