American feverfew has been, or still is, treated as a variety of wild quinine (P. integrifolium) instead of its own species. There are some differences. American feverfew is usually shorter, has slightly larger flowers, more typically occurs on glades, and frequently spreads by underground rhizome than wild quinine. Both have flat-topped clusters of white flowers that attract bees and other interesting insects, such as beetles, wasps, and native flies.
