Professional Growing Information I planted this coneflower at least three years ago, and it is still going strong! At least in my garden, the latest coolest coneflowers generally only last a season, maybe two. This one is very pretty, compact, and above all, it keeps coming back in my zone 6A central Ohio garden. I am looking to buy more of these in 2025!

Just planted late September. The color is fantastic and seems to be retaining itself well in spite of the late season. Looking forward to next summer!
