Echinacea purpurea / Purple Coneflower
Light: Full sun to Part Shade
Soil: Dry to medium
Growth: 2-5’ Tall, 1.5-2’ Wide
Bloom: Purple blooms in June - August
This native perennial is great for mass plantings, especially when planted with other flowering perennials like black eyed susans or grasses. The clumps can be divided every 4 years or so. You can dead head plants if you wish, but plants tend to re-bloom on their own. If you leave seed heads you will find golden finches and other birds visiting to feed from the seeds.
