Echinacea

The 'Coneflower' These plants have become tremendously popular in recent years thanks to the trend of 'Prairie Style' planting schemes. Their impressive daisy type cone centre flowers in varying shades can be put to good effect mixed with other hardy perennials such as Asters, Rudbekias, Cimicifuga, eryngiums etc, & especially married with all the ornamental grasses which invoke this prairie style planting effect.

Plant Echinaceas in well drained soil in full sun & they will reward you with months of flowers.
