Darn Gorgeous Rose vs Narrow-Leaved Coneflower (Echinacea)

Narrow-Leaved Coneflower is a native perennial wildflower known for its pink to pale purple, daisy-like blooms. The petals (rays) droop downwards, around a dark, domed center, giving the flower a cone-like appearance. The nectar-rich blossoms attract a wide variety of pollinators, including native bees and butterflies. After flowering, the seeds provide food for birds, further adding to its ecological value.

Once established, it is drought-tolerant due to its deep taproot, which also helps stabilize soil. Narrow-Leaved Coneflower thrives in a variety of well-drained soils, including sandy, rocky, and alkaline. It often grows alongside the native grasses that characterize prairie and grassland ecosystems, making it well-suited for prairie and grassland restoration, naturalization, and pollinator gardens.
