Purple Coneflower
Magnus purple coneflower is an improved version of the native eastern purple coneflower. It has nice, mounding green leaves and sturdy flower stalks.
In mid-summer, large purple flowers bloom. They have a large brown cone in the center.
Magnus coneflower has larger petals than the native species, which makes the flowers more noticeable. In addition, the petals droop much less.
