Native Red Mexican Hat (Ratibida columnifera)
Mexican Hat (Ratibida columnifera) is native, short-lived perennial in many states across the US. An upright coneflower, it has a brown cone-like disk where seeds form and downward-facing petals. Petal colors can range from dark red and yellow, to all red or all yellow.
It's easy to grow from seed, drought tolerant once established, and typically prefers poor soils. It's a wonderful pollinator plant for bees, butterflies, and insects. Fall planting is recommended so it has time to cold stratify and germinate. Minimum 1/8 tsp of seeds included.
