Our sommelier insists that this Coneflower's expansive pink petals look closer to rose; she agrees, however, that the long, elegant stems on which they pose are definitely merlot. No matter -- you'll love the bouquet, and the fact that this tall, much-branched perennial holds up its head without staking. (PP 18,814)

Echinacea, a North American genus in the Daisy family, has big, bright flowers that appear from late June until frost. Coneflowers thrive in average soils or hot, dry conditions and shrug off cold. Blooms last well, cut or dried, and the seeds in the large cone at the heart of the flower head provide nourishment for birds. We offer exciting new hybrids and excellent strains of Coneflower, E. purpurea, a rugged species that is native from Iowa and Ohio to Louisiana and Georgia. Equally at home in formal borders or cottage gardens.
