Single flower growing about 1 ft high. Bright red edges with pinkish white petals and a green/yellow center.
Rocky hill country among native prairie grass.
Could it be a young Black-sampson echinacea? (Echinacea angustifolia) Or perhaps a PALE PURPLE CONEFLOWER (Echinacea pallida)

It's an echinacea of some sort, hard to say what species though.
Looks like young Purple Coneflower.
Believe it is from the Gaillardia family, which one I'm not sure
