Description
Echinacea purpurea PowWow Wild Berry forms a compact, upright clump with sturdy branched stems and deep rose-purple, daisy-like flowers around orange-brown cones from June through September.
Grow it in full sun or partial shade and moist but well-drained soil. Its flowers draw pollinators, suit cutting, and hold their color well, while the modest size fits borders, prairie-style plantings, and containers.
