Details

Profuse blooms of adorable, 1 1/2"– 2 1/2", bright yellow flowers with small, black/brown centers. Wiry, well-branched stems have few leaves, making this an excellent cut flower. Also serves as a filler or accent flower in bouquets. This native U.S. wildflower tolerates most conditions, including drought, once established. Short-lived perennial in Zones 3-9; typically flowers first year but may not bloom until second year if heavily crowded.
