The cone flower which is also known as ‘Magnus’ or its latin name Echinacea is a perennial with narrowly oval leaves and flowerheads to 10cm wide. It has drooping deep pink settles and an orange-brown central cone.
The latin name derives from the Greek work ekhinos meaning “hedgehog” which i presume is down to its spiny centre.

However the best thing about this plant is that butterfly’s and bees love it!!
