Description

Echinacea Purpurea: Coneflower's daisy like flower, petals are sterile and are there to lure insects toward the many fertile flowers in the central disk or cone. These flowers are rich in nectar and very popular with both butterflies and bee's. It has a more fibrous root system, rather than the long tap root and woody crown found in other wilder species, and is more adaptable to garden conditions and more forgiving of dividing and transplanting.

Planting Purple Coneflowers: Germinate best with some cold stratification - Simulate the chilling period by soaking the seeds in water and then placing the slightly damp seed with moist sand, in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 8 to 10 weeks.
