PowWow® Wild Berry Coneflower

Add these incredible, long-lasting blooms to your landscape for an easy shot of bright color. Even a single plant in a patio container will bring a cheery look. You'll love them so much, you're sure to want more! Go big with the petite PowWow® Wild Berry Coneflower (Echinacea purpurea 'Pas702917')!

Neither the bright orange, spiky cone, nor the unique shade of purple-pink-bubblegum petals will fade despite heat and sun. You'll enjoy these hardy, yet sweet little charmers for months from summer through to fall. You won't be the only one! Watch and enjoy the dancing butterflies as they sip nectar from these flowers.

These plants are compact but deliver a huge amount of flower power. With a good branch structure, each proud bloom is held aloft on sturdy stems. The flowers just keep coming! PowWow® Wild Berry is an improved version of the beloved native Echinacea. Add cut blooms to wonderful flower arrangements. Go wild with your designs, as these blooms can handle a lot of different styles.

You can't go wrong with these low-maintenance, high-impact plants! Be sure to leave several of the spent spikey seedheads at the end of the season to remain. They'll catch the light, fluffy snow in wintertime. You'll gain winter interest and local birds will get to eat from the dried seed heads. Win-win!

PowWow® Wild Berry Coneflower adapts to just about any climate in the U.S., thriving throughout USDA planting zones 3 to 9, laughing at extreme drought, heat, cold, and humidity. It should perform beautifully for you in your garden, container, border, and vase all season long!

Planting and Application:

Have you ever heard that pink light bulbs are used in elegant restaurants because they make everyone's skin look fabulous? That same trick works for plants! This special shade of pinky-purple works beautifully in just about any color pot, including orange or purple. The hues will pick up on that underlying tone in the petals!

Of course, PowWow® looks great in neutral-colored pots, too. A perfect choice for an incredible "Thrillers" in containers, you'll be amazed at the versatility of this small perennial. Try planting up several matching containers along your patio or front walk, or jazz things up with a mixed collection of glazed planters placed in a triangle near your front entrance.

Style them as you like, too. Dress them up with high-end Roses, or let their true prairie roots shine forth by adding them to Cut Flower Gardens, Cottage Gardens, a must-have for the mixed Butterfly Garden with spring and early summer flowering perennials. Create an eye-catching garden border with their partners, the PowWow® White Coneflower, adding a color contrast.

The PowWow® line is a great height for use throughout the landscape. It can be used as a facer or edging plant to liven up the look of mature evergreens. It creates a fantastic colorful backdrop to smaller plants and groundcovers.

Tolerating harsh locations in the sun, handling poor soil, and periodic drought, making them fantastic in the hell-strip along the road or sidewalk, in Rock Gardens, or in a Xeric garden with Prairie Grasses and other prairie wildflowers. Include them in your Fire-Wise landscaping plan!

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Once these sun-loving plants are established in your yard, the hard work is over. They are great for new and busy gardeners and are easy to grow, even in poor soils. If you want the best performance, you will need to give them plenty of sunshine. They'll need at least 6 hours of full sun a day.

These herbaceous perennials need well-drained soil. Although they will be relatively drought tolerant, you'll get more blooms with a regular schedule of medium water. Other than that, PowWow® Wild Berry Coneflowers are almost maintenance-free. Echinacea is a native species that does well in most of the country with very little care!

Snip plenty of blooms and take them inside for spicy flower arrangements. It's a great way to deadhead the fading or spent blooms and encourage a new flush to follow right along behind it. In early spring, if you've left your perennial plantings to stand over the winter, just snip the stalks back down to an inch above ground level.

• Carefree & Durable Full Sun Perennial
• Tolerates Heat, Humidity & Poor Soils
• Needs Well-Drained Soil
• Moderate to Low Moisture
• Deadhead Spent Flowers & Prune In Spring
• Cold Hardy & Widely Adaptable
