Neutral smiln32 On Dec 4, 2004, smiln32 from Oklahoma City, OK (Zone 7a) wrote:

This is a herbaceous perennial plant, which can reach 16" in height. They are native to the U.S. Blooms first appear in early spring and continue into late spring. The small tubular flowers are in flower heads that are in tight terminal clusters which resemble cat's paws, thus the name. They are almost always found in dense masses.

Dried flowers remain on the plant for a considerable period of time.
