Another tall plant of the North American prairie it is doing particularly well during the recent stretch of dry and hot weather. Like it's neighbor the Compass plant these beautiful prairie perennials thrive in hot and dry conditions because their root systems are established deed in the earth.
After this showy flower drops its petals and dries the cone that is left at the end of the stalk smells of spices when you crumble it between your fingers.
