Kompassikukat (Silphium) on asterikasvien suku, johon kuuluu 13 lajia. Ne ovat sukua auringonkukille. Niitä esiintyy alkuperäisenä Pohjois-Amerikassa: Yhdysvalloissa ja Kanadan Ontariossa.[1] Leveäkompassikukkaa on viljelty koristeperennana ja myös biomassakasvina Keski-Euroopassa. Se on levinnyt luontoon useissa Euroopan maissa. #kompassikukka #arnokasvi | Arno Kasvi: Palstalta parempaa -kirja
