Also known as Helianthus rigidus or H. laetiflorus (Stiff or Prairie Sunflower), Showy Sunflower is host to the
Gorgone
Checkerspot, a butterfly that is restricted to high quality prairie dry
remnants. Showy Sunflower is rhizomatous and aggressive and therefore may not be suitable for small landscape plantings.
