Palafoxia callosa, Spanish Needles or Small Palafox is an attractive native annual wildflower with pink to rose-lavender flowers and in the wild usually forms large stands on rocky barrons.  Palafoxia callosa is a great addition to a naturalized wildflower meadow planting, due to its ability to provide color the first year before the perennials mature and begin to bloom.  Palafoxia may be cut back in early summer to keep the plant very short and compact.  

Native Palafoxia callosa is showy annual wildflower occuring naturally on limestone or dolomite glades, bald knobs, sandy or rocky open ground, and along gravel streambeds from Missouri and Arkansas, to Oklahoma and Texas.   Asteraceae (Aster Family)
