Antennaria parlinii

Antennaria parlinii has "two fairly distinct subspecies that differ in induments of basal leaves (tomentose in subsp. fallax; glabrous in subsp. parlinii). Antennaria parlinii is the most common eastern North American species." (Flora North America)  When trying to identify pussytoes, check the gender of all of the colonies located in a particular population as that will make a difference. Multiple species of Antennaria may sometimes be found growing together. 

Seedling

Antennaria parlinii seedlings already show white hairs.
The seedlings are very tiny but already have white hairs on leaves. They do best in very well draining mix.
