Everything's Rosy Echinacea is a well-branching native perennial with strong upright stems and deep green foliage. The large soft rose pink flowers with fluffy dark pink cones that soften to lavender-pink with age, and bloom from mid summer into fall. If deadheaded, the bloom can be extended to frost. 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.
