echinacea

Echinacea is a perennial plant native to North America that plays an important role in our gardens, where its drooping petals in multiple shades of pink shine for much of the summer, making a mockery of drought. With its multiple medicinal properties, it's a must-have addition to the family herb kit. A beautiful, long-lasting cut flower, it also attracts butterflies. In bloom from July to September. 80 cm high. Zone 3.
