Echinacea Plants for Spring |
|
This, the queen of the Daisies, is called Coneflower for its dome-shaped center. Plants continue to bloom from June into the fall. Breeders have teased out a considerable range of pinks, purples, yellows, and oranges, plus white, with more hues coming every year. There are double-flowered forms as well as varieties with petals pulled back like a badminton shuttlecock. We’re not qualified to comment on the health-giving properties attributed to the leaves, but can aver that these are first-class garden plants for full sun.
