Haploesthes greggii, common name false broomweed,[2] is a North American species of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae.
It grows in northeastern Mexico (Chihuahua, Coahuila and Nuevo León) and in the south-central and southwestern United States (Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico; also historical reports of the species in Colorado and Kansas but very likely extirpated there).
[3][4][5] The genus name is sometimes spelled Haploësthes, with two dots over the first e to indicate that the o and the e are to be pronounced in separate syllables.
[3][6] Haploesthes greggii is a perennial herb or subshrub up to 80 cm (31 in) tall, somewhat succulent.
The plant produces numerous yellow flower heads in flat-topped arrays.
