Queen-of-the-Prairie is a fitting name for this stunning wildflower! It's bright pink blooms rise above the surrounding vegetation and can be seen from a considerable distance. Not easily confused with any other native plant, the distinctive appearance of it's frothy, wind-tossed clusters of blooms sets it clearly apart. These unique flowers bloom from the bottom up, and overall last about three weeks. Easy to grow in average, medium to wet, well-drained soil.
