Adenophyllum is a small genus of plants in the tribe Tageteae within the family Asteraceae. It contains ten species known generally as dogweeds.[1][2]

These are gangly, daisylike or thistlelike plants with yellow or reddish flowers. They are native primarily to the southwestern United States and northern Mexico, where they are most common in desert regions.[3]
