Notes
'Puff Vanilla' coneflower (Echinacea 'Puff Vanilla') is a perennial for borders, containers, and low maintenance beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. White petals surround pale yellow centers, and the fragrant blooms attract bees. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. It is drought tolerant and grows 18 to 24 inches tall.
Pairs well with Cat mint, Tall fescue, and Carnation.
