Notes

'Heavenly Dream' coneflower (Echinacea 'Heavenly Dream') is a perennial for borders, cottage gardens, pollinator gardens, and cut flowers. 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. White petals surround a greenish-yellow center cone from early to late summer, and the fragrant blooms draw butterflies, bees, and birds. Deer tend to browse other plants first.

Pairs well with Pyrethrum, Nodding onion, Sedge, and Empress Wu hosta.
