Sticky Groundsel Flowerheads with spreading yellow rays which roll back as the flowers wither. Outer bracts usually dark-tipped. Hairless achenes. Whole plant covered in sticky-feeling glandular hairs, trapping air-borne debris and dust. Free-draining, disturbed ground, often associated with railway ballast. Waste ground, roadsides, ports, rubbish tips. Mainly Dublin, Belfast, occasional elsewhere. Similar: Heath Groundsel
