With flat-topped or dome-shaped clusters up to 4 inches across at the top of the plant, Vernonia fasciculata (otherwise known as Prairie Ironweed) naturally attracts bees and butterflies.
Blooming from July to September, it is perfect for any garden for a school setting. Note that they will grow 3-6 feet, though!
These plants grow in sunny areas with moist soil, such as low prairies, ditches, marshes, and along shores.
48 Prairie Ironweeds have been planted in TCA's rain garden.
