The flower has a drooping head consisting of dark chocolate-brown florets surrounded by six distinctive rigid, barbed bristles. It is thought that the plants are wind pollinated, and seeds mature in late summer/fall. New plants develop on stems that have fallen on the ground and have also been observed germinating on the parent plant.
