Plant Highlight: Echinacea (Coneflower) Botanical and Common Name: Echinacea is often called Purple Coneflower. The prominent cone-shaped center of each daisy-like flower gave the plant its common name.
Echinacea, a North American genus in the Daisy family, produces big, bright flowers from late June until frost. Plants thrive in average soils, withstand 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.
