Echinacea crown

Organically grown at KoruKai Herb Farm, New Zealand, without the use of synthetic fertilisers, pesticides, or herbicides.
Echinacea is one of the most widely used medicinal herbs in Western herbal medicine and a beautiful addition to any garden. Native to the prairies of North America, this hardy perennial produces stunning purple daisy-like flowers that attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects throughout summer. While the flowers are highly ornamental, it is the roots that are most prized by herbalists. Echinacea is a long-lived perennial that becomes increasingly productive each year and is well worth growing as part of a home herbal apothecary.
Highly photogenic herb, a truly stunning flower in the middle of summer. Plant echinacea where you can see it!
