CONEFLOWER – White Swan

When we think of Coneflowers, also known as Echinacea, we might think of pink blooms, but believe it or not, there’s a rare, white variety too. Coneflowers are perennials, but they do have a dormant season, so don’t be surprised if they disappear for a few months only to reappear. The flowers are excellent for arrangements, lasting well in the vase, and you can make a healthy Echinacea tea using leaves and dry flower petals.
