Available for purchase are 30 seeds from my Purple Coneflower, MAGNUS. This is a beautiful coneflower with one of the largest flower heads of them all. The large pink petals stay flat longer, before drooping downward. Plant in masses and your butterflies will thank you! They prefer a little extra moisture the first year or two, but become extremely drought tolerant after that. Leave the seed heads on over winter for a dramatic effect. The birds will appreciate your efforts and you may be rewarded with new seedlings in the spring. They are reliable bloomers and reproduce well, giving you years of enjoyment. They are very hardy and very little care is needed. I believe the "strong shall survive" in my garden. You will appreciate my motto!
