Additional Information: Pincushion Daisy is a fragrant, tough prairie wildflower well adapted to hot, dry conditions and open landscapes. It grows naturally in prairies and dry grasslands. The flowers sometimes feature pale yellow petals surrounding a rounded central disk that gives the plant its pincushion-like appearance. Its relatively early bloom period provides an important nectar source for pollinators. Pincushion Daisy works well in prairie plantings, dry wildflower gardens, and low-maintenance landscapes, where it adds seasonal color while thriving in challenging conditions.
