Echinacea pallida has a more eastern and broader range than Echinacea angustifolia, occurring in open woods, glades, and rocky prairies from northeast Texas, eastern Oklahoma, and Kansas; north to Iowa and Wisconsin; east to Indiana. The Oglala Dakota used the root of Echinacea pallida internally for toothache and bad colds. Wolf Chief, a Hidatsu, reported a warrior would chew a small piece of Echinacea pallida root as a stimulant when traveling at night.
