Hi Bobby, I can’t tell which species of this composite flower is. If you could check the phyllaries from its involucres and compare to these included links, and see if you find a match. I’m wondering if yours could be something in the Chrysopsis genus, perhap Maryland golden-aster (Chrysopsis mariana) with very short flowering stalk? Best wishes Bobby! http://www.discoverlife.org/mp/20p?see=I_MST1038&res=640
