Prairie Splendor Echinacea is a compact freely branching native perennial with strong upright dark stems and deep green foliage. The large fragrant flowers with downward arching rose-magenta petals and dark orange cones that fade to soft pink bloom from late spring through summer. Thrives in full sun and well-drained soils. The flowers are highly attractive to pollinators, and spent stems will stay erect and attract birds if not removed. Drought tolerant.
