Western Ironweed, also known as Baldwin’s Ironweed, belongs to the Sunflower family (Asteraceae), featuring vibrant magenta flowers blooming from late summer to early fall. Recognized by the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation for its significance in inviting native bees, this plant serves as a valuable late-season nectar source. Some moth species feed on Ironweed, adding to its ecological importance. Bitter in taste, thriving in diverse soil conditions, Western Ironweed spreads vigorously via rhizomes, making it suitable for large prairies or meadows rather than home gardens. Its propensity to hybridize with other Vernonia species can pose challenges in identification.
