Coneflower Pixie Meadowbrite

Coneflower Pixie Meadowbrite, Echinacea 'Pixie Meadowbrite', has vibrant pink flowers and orange cone centers that create a colorful display. This eye catching show will draw your attention! As the name implies its knee high size makes this plant perfect for decorative containers as well as borders. 'Pixie Meadowbrite'™ was developed by Dr. Jim Ault of the Chicago Botanic Garden. Denser and a more compact habit than typical coneflowers, this charming, mini coneflower is a true dwarf. 'Pixie Meadowbrite' has hardiness, drought tolerance, and longevity. For best results, plant in full sun in a well drained area. Echinacea is known for its large flower heads that turn to seed in the fall. It is a great choice for cut flowers, and it adds a wilderness look to your garden. Not only is it a prized perennial for many gardeners, but it is also said to be a potent medicine. Echinacea is said to increase immune function, reduce the effects of colds and flu’s, fights off viral, bacterial and fungal infections and purify the blood and flush waste from the lymphatic system.
