Gray-headed Coneflower: Order Code Bgr-02d
Subject: Gray-headed Coneflower, Ratibida pinnata
Date: 27 July 2003
Locale: Kosota Prairie, south of Kosota, Minnesota.
Photographer:  Kendall W. Corbin
Comments: If you sniff this flower you won't smell much until it is lightly bruised. Then you may be surprised by the scent of anise or licorice, depending upon how discriminating your nose may be. The floppy appearance of the petals of this species makes it an easy species to identify.
