This herbaceous annual grows 1 to 2 feet tall in full sun and moist to dry, well-drained soil. The daisy-like flowers are yellow with a brownish-purple center, and bloom on rough stalks from June to October. It attracts birds for its seeds and pollinating insects for its nectar, and is resistant to browsing by deer.
