Purple Coneflower (Echinacea purpurea)

Purple Coneflower, also known as Echinacea purpurea, is a hardy and versatile perennial native to North America. Its iconic daisy-like flowers with vibrant purple petals and spiky, orange-brown centers make it a staple in pollinator gardens, prairies, and wildflower meadows. Not only is it beloved by bees, butterflies, and birds, but it has a rich history of medicinal use. Easy to grow, drought-tolerant, and long-blooming, Purple Coneflower is a beautiful addition to any garden or permaculture system.

Key Characteristics:

  • Attracts pollinators and wildlife
    Purple Coneflower’s large, nectar-rich blooms are a magnet for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators throughout summer and fall. Once the flowers fade, the seed heads offer food for finches and other birds.

  • Medicinal powerhouse
    Traditionally used by Native Americans for immune support, the roots and leaves of Echinacea purpurea are still popular today in herbal medicine to combat colds, boost immunity, and fight infections.

  • Drought-tolerant and easy to grow
    Thriving in a wide range of soils, Purple Coneflower is drought-resistant once established. It's perfect for low-maintenance gardens, prairie plantings, and xeriscaping, requiring little water and care.

  • Versatile in the landscape
    Whether planted in a cottage garden, wildflower meadow, or pollinator-friendly border, Purple Coneflower adds height, color, and texture. It’s a great companion in permaculture designs, attracting beneficial insects while offering medicinal uses.

  • Seed head beauty in winter
    Even after the blooms fade, the spiky seed heads add interest to the winter garden and provide valuable food for birds like goldfinches. Their strong stems also offer structure for overwintering insects.
