Echinaceas purpurea is an herbaceous perennial plant with beautiful daisy-like flowers that bloom in the summer.

Native to North America, these flowers come in purple, pink or white and range from around 18-36 inches tall.

When planting Echinaceas, it’s best to use good quality soil at the start of spring. To ensure optimal growth for your Echinacea purpurea, place it in a sunny spot with well drained soil and water regularly.

Additionally, cut back Echinacea purpurea stems and leaves once a year before they set flower buds as this will encourage longer flowering as well as more natural bushier growth.
