Mexican Hats © 2011 Patty Hankins
I fell in love with the Mexican Hat wildflower on my trip to Texas last year. Also known as Prairie Coneflowers, these bright yellow & red flowers are very common on the Texas Prairie. In large clusters, they create a wave of yellow and red fluttering in the breeze. As I was planning my trip to Texas, I saw photos of the Mexican Hats in my wildflower books – I knew they were going to be one of the flowers that I’d be looking to photograph.
Mexican hats (ratibida columnifera) are a wonderful prairie wildflower native to much of the United States and Canada. A member of the aster family, it gets its common name from its resemblance to the high-centered hats worn at Mexican fiestas. It’s not uncommon to see fields with thousands of these brightly colored summer-blooming wildflowers in bloom – a site I hope to see and photograph one day.
