Pica Bella Echinacea is a freely branching native perennial with strong upright stems that do not need staking and dark green foliage. The large fragrant dark pink flowers with large orange-bronze cones bloom heavily through summer and sporadically until frost. Thrives in full sun and well-drained soils. The flowers attract butterflies and bees, and spent stems will stay erect and attract birds if not removed. Drought tolerant.
