Echinacea purpurea / Purple Coneflower

If you’ve only got room for one perennial plant, Echinacea purpurea is certainly a contender. Long lasting blooms (July through October) attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects. These long-lived herbaceous perennials are easy to grow in full sun to part shade. They spread gently by clumping and seed if you leave seed heads in place over winter. Root clumps can be divided and transplanted around your garden. Echinacea has well-known medicinal properties also!
