Ratibida columnifera 'Red Midget'
- Product number: 549600
- Origin: North America
- Latin: Ratibida columnifera
I often hear surprised exclamations about this flower: "been looking for it for years..." A lovely, airy plant with unusual flowers: the heart of the flower protrudes slenderly by 5-8cm, and halfway down, the (slightly) recurved ray florets are arranged like a hoop skirt! The color of the ray florets is chestnut (reddish) brown with a warm yellow tip. The leaves are very narrow and lance-shaped. Plant them in a sunny, not too wet spot.
