Tres Amigos Echinacea is a compact freely branching native perennial that does not need staking and aromatic dark green foliage. Heavy blooms of lightly fragrant flowers open coral pink, brighten to rose pink, then fade to magenta and bloom from late spring through summer. Thrives in full sun and well-drained soils. The flowers attract butterflies and bees, and spent stems will stay erect and attract birds if not removed. Drought tolerant.
