Very tall native prairie perennial, easily reaching 7' tall x 2' wide.

Native wildflower to Central and southeastern United, in prairies, dry open woods, wood margins, and along roadsides or railroads. See the USDA distribution map.

Hardy in zones 4 to 8. Very tolerant and adaptable to soils and moisture - can grow in medium dry, medium or medium-wet soils, tolerates any soil from clay to shallow, drier rocky soil or disturbed soil. Full sun, half sun or half shade are the best.

Plants in poor soils are shorter, open and spindly, while plants on good soils and consistent moisture are taller and fuller. Plants usually don't need staking.
