Patrinia
Flowers borne during early summer.
Hardy zones 5 to 8 in full sun to partial shade.

Reaches up to 1 foot with yellow flowers.
Patrinia scabiosifolia
A long-lived perennial, reaching a maximum size of 7 x 3 feet.
The leaves resemble that of Scabiosa. The foliage turns glowing scarlet-red during autumn.
The flowers are yellow.
Hardy zones 4 to 8 in full sun to partial shade. Heat and drought tolerant. Unfortunately, it is an alternate host for Daylily Rust.
The deep taproot makes it difficult to transplant.
