I fell in love
with Cone Flowers (also known as Echinacea) when I drove by a house that had
Cone Flowers and Black-eyed Susan planted alongside the road. It was breathtaking. Ever since it has been a
love affair with the flower. They used
to be mostly pink and white, but now as horticulturists experiment with new
varieties, I’ve seen them in yellow, orange and green. Not only do they make a beautiful mix with
other late summer perennials, if left unattended in a winter garden their empty
stalks make for an excellent addition to the winter landscape.
