Echinacea purpurea, also known as purple coneflower, has pink flowers and a large, orange-brown cone in the centre. Try growing Echinacea in drifts towards the middle or back of a border to create a beautiful cottage garden, or sow among grasses and rudbeckias to create a lovely prairie-style garden.
The flowers are attractive to bees and other pollinators. This drought-tolerant variety makes for a lovely cut flower and flowers from June to September at an approximate height of 90-100cm.
