distribution_en:

description_en: Genus of about 20 species of annuals, biennials, and perennials (some of which may be grown as annuals), with short rhizomes, from moist meadows and light woodland in North America. They have branched or unbranched stems, and most have alternate, simple to pinnatifid, occasionally pinnate, prominently veined leaves, toothed towards the tips. Usually solitary, daisy-like flowerheads, often with reflexed yellow ray-florets and conical centres consisting of black, brown, or green disc-florets, are borne on long stems over a long period from summer to autumn. Most are good for cut flowers. Grow in a border or naturalize in a meadow or woodland garden. Most cultivars of R. hirta are grown as annuals, and are good for bedding or for infilling in borders.

hardiness_en: Fully hardy to half hardy.
