Echinacea, known as coneflowers, are essential for any wildlife-friendly garden, offering months of stunning blooms from midsummer into autumn. Their large, daisy-like flowers stand out in any planting scheme, while their rich nectar attracts bees and butterflies, helping to support pollinators when they need it most.
Hardy, Low-Maintenance, and Drought-Resistant
These perennial powerhouses are incredibly easy to grow, thriving in full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, they tolerate drought well, making them ideal for low-maintenance borders or containers on sunny patios. They’re naturally resistant to pests and diseases, ensuring they stay strong and healthy year after year.
A Stunning Addition to Borders and Pots
With their sturdy, upright growth habit, Echinacea add height, structure, and movement to borders and mixed planting schemes. They’re also perfect for patio pots, where their bright blooms can be enjoyed up close. Their long stems make them excellent cut flowers, bringing their beauty indoors.
Winter Interest and Wildlife Benefits
Even when flowering ends, Echinacea keeps on giving. Their seed heads provide food for birds during the colder months, while their bold silhouettes add structure and winter interest to the garden.
