| Neutral | melody | On Feb 15, 2005, melody from Benton, KY (Zone 7a) wrote: A hairy plant with leafy stems growing in a clump with fringed, bright yellow flowers in the uppper leaf axils.
Found in dry, open plains and foothills of the Western US, Canada and as far east as IL.
The genus name means 'stone seed', refering to the hard nutlet seeds. It produces few fruits from the showy flowers, instead, late in the season, inconspicuous flowers form under the leaves, which remain closed, and produce fruits in the lower leaf axils. | | Neutral | smiln32 | On Dec 5, 2004, smiln32 from Oklahoma City, OK (Zone 7a) wrote: This perennial is native to the U.S. (grasslands) It has showy small yellow trumpet-shaped flowers with fringed petals. Gorgeous color. It can grow in sunny or partly shady conditions. Good drainage is important. It probably would not make an especially good landscape plant. | | Positive | mhelm | On Jun 10, 2004, mhelm from Fargo, ND wrote: I have discovered this growing wild on North Dakota prairie hillsides, sandy dry soil, full sun, also in bright orange. Bloom time: late May and early June. Very bright and vibrant coloration. |
