Ratibida columnifera 'Red Midget' is a compact selection of prairie coneflower with distinctive, sombrero-like blooms: reflexed red rays with yellow tips surrounding a tall, dark central cone. You will get a lively, prairie-style look without a tall, floppy plant, making it easy to tuck into smaller borders and sunny beds.

Give it full sun for the strongest stems and the heaviest flowering, but it will also perform in part shade, especially where summers are hot. This perennial prefers well-drained soil and is comfortable in lean ground once established, so you can use it in low-input plantings, meadows, and native-style gardens. Expect a long season of summer color and plenty of visitor traffic from bees and butterflies.

Plant with other sun-loving perennials and grasses and allow some room for its clumping habit. Water regularly the first season to help roots settle in, then let the soil dry a bit between waterings. Deadhead for a tidier look, or leave some seedheads to stand into fall for seasonal interest. Cut stems back in late winter or early spring before new growth resumes.
