Notes

'Greenline' coneflower (Echinacea purpurea 'Greenline') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, pollinator gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Double green blooms open from early to late summer. Butterflies, bees, and birds visit the flowers.
