Ok hi well i never had this before. Went weeding and dead heading today and found two of these coneflower heads. They was toward the ground attached to the plant still. And the rest of the plant is very healthy and no dead heading needed. So is this coneflower this eager to produce

That's asters yellow. It effects echs, rudbeckia, and others. Look up the list. But there's nothing to be done besides diggling the plant and pitching it before it spreads to others.... Via lea hoppers
