Echinacea, Tennessee
| Botanical Name: |
Echinacea tennesseensis |
| Life Cycle: |
Hardy Perennial |
Description/Size:
|
This Echinacea does not stop flowering. We predict that this species, which was almost dug to extinction, (and was placed on the National Endangered Species list) will become one of America's most popular flowering perennials. What a great medicinal herb too. It is similar to Echinacea angustifolia in its medicinal chemistry. Smaller flowers than other ""Purple Coneflowers"", but the petals on this variety turn upright and are darker purple rather than droopy and washed out.
