Notes
'Norwhinat' coneflower (Echinacea purpurea 'Norwhinat') is a perennial for borders, cottage gardens, pollinator gardens, and cut flower beds. 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 an orange-brown center cone from early to late summer. Butterflies, bees, and birds visit the blooms. Deer tend to browse other plants first.
