Coneflower is about as low-maintenance as it gets — full sun, doesn't ask for much water once it's established, and the pollinators go nuts for it all summer.
Here's the part most people don't know: leave the seed heads up through winter instead of cutting them back. Goldfinches will pick them clean, and they give you some actual structure in the garden when everything else is flat.
Fall's the time to plant it — warm soil means the roots settle in fast with none of the stress a spring planting deals with.
It's 20% off right now along with the rest of our perennials, shrubs, roses & vines (mums excluded).
