SILPHIUM perfoliatum
|
Description: Need a bold accent? Try this! Distinguished from other silphium by its square stems and pairs of cup-forming leaves, this prairie native has 3-inch lemon yellow sunflowers on 4-8 foot stalks. Leaves are opposite and are fused around the stem forming a cup that collects rainwater. Adapts well to prairies, wildflower/native plant gardens, naturalized areas or moist, open woodland areas including stream and pond edges.
