Prairie agoseris is a hardy native wildflower that thrives with minimal intervention in well-drained soils. Plant it in a partially shaded to open meadow setting and water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots. Once established, it requires little attention and naturalizes beautifully in native plant gardens.
