Notes
'Snow Cone' coneflower (Echinacea 'Snow Cone') is a perennial for borders, pollinator gardens, cottage 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 blooms with a chartreuse cone appear from early to late summer. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. Butterflies, bees, and birds visit the flowers.
