Sturdy, 2- to 3-foot tall, long-lived perennial with hundreds of 11/2-inch flowerheads on unbranched stems. Flowers rich yellow with crisp black centers. This is a no-fuss-no-muss plant. It is disease and pest resistant, can take some drought, doesn't need staking, and flowers forever from August to the first hard frost when the birds take over and feed on the seeds. Looks great with Goldenrod, Prairie Blazing Star, grasses, Sedum 'Autumn Joy,' Asters, Sunflowers, and Ironweed. Cat# 1187
