Echinacea purpurea(Purple Coneflower) Customer Review RatingWell known for its use in herbal medicine, the large purple daisy like flowers of this hardy perennial, provide a wonderful display in late summer. The weather resistant blooms of the coneflower make an attractive cut flower. Make sure you leave some flowers for the wildlife in your garden; butterflies love their nectar and birds will flock to dry Echinacea seed heads at the end of the summer! An excellent choice for dotting through borders! Height: 90cm (36"). Spread: 45cm (18") Supplied as bare root plants. More info |
Echinacea 'Eccentric'(Coneflower) Aptly named, this unusual new Echinacea produces giant, crested blooms which open a beautiful rich red colour with hints of purple, gradually changing to burnt orange and scarlet shades at maturity. This fascinating effect creates a range of colours at any one time on the same plant! The long-lasting blooms, which appear from July to September, are highly attractive to bees and butterflies and make a superb addition to cut flower arrangements. A robust, compact and resilient plant, Echinacea 'Eccentric' is ideal for planting in coastal gardens. Height: 60cm (24"). Spread: 45cm (18"). Supplied as plug plants. More info |
