Purple Coneflower

purple cone flower
Purple Coneflower (Echinacea purpurea)
A real workhorse for our southern gardens, echinaceas bloom in summer and now can be found in a variety of colors from purple to pink to white, yellow and orange. Depending on the cultivar they can get from 2’ to 3.5’ tall and thrive in poor, unamended soil. In fact, for these
beauties, rich “good” soil can make them short lived.
