Owl's Claw is a fabulous mountain wildflower found throughout the intermountain West in mid-to-high elevation meadows. A vigorous grower for higher elevations in the West, and cool climate areas of the upper Midwest and northern New England, it's not suitable for cultivation in hot and muggy summer climates. In habitat Owl's Claw is often found growing in huge colonies and makes an unforgettable display with thousands of colorful flowers covered with pollinators. Also known as Orange Sneezeweed. Grow in the sun or part-sun locations that have loam or clay soils and provide the plants with average to moist soil conditions. Suitable for elevations above 7,000 feet. Our plants originate the mountains on the eastern edge of central Arizona and can be planted with Phlox paniculata (Tall Garden Phlox), Monarda (Beebalm) and Campanula rotundifolia (Bluebells).
