Description
This vigorous native prairie species is spangled for months on end with four-petaled, bright and cheerful yellow blossoms which emerge from large, orange buds. Tolerates a wide range of situations and thrives in hot, dry conditions. ‘Prairie Lode’ was selected by Bluebird Nursery in Clarkson, Nebraska for its compact habit. Cut back to ground each spring for best performance.
