Looking for a plant that will add beauty and interest to your garden while also attracting butterflies and birds? Look no further than Ratibida pinnata, also known as gray-head coneflower, yellow coneflower, and prairie coneflower. This hardy, native perennial can grow up to 3 ft tall and produces long stalks of vibrant yellow flowers with drooping petals surrounding a grayish-brown cone. The rough-haired, glandular leaves can reach up to 1 ft in length and are divided into several large lance-shaped or oval lobes. This plant grows well in prairies, on the margins of woods, and on roadsides, and is equally at home in both moist and dry habitats. It's not easily outcompeted by other plants, so it's a reliable choice for your garden. Add Ratibida pinnata to your landscape for a touch of prairie charm and natural beauty.
