Easily grown in average, dry to medium, well-drained soil. Best in full sun. An adaptable plant that is tolerant of drought, heat, humidity and poor soils. Divide clumps when they become overcrowded (about every 4 years). Consider leaving some seedheads standing as a winter food source for song birds. Plants normally grow with one unbranched stem in the wild, but often produce multi-stemmed clumps in gardens.
Grows 24-36"
Blooms May-July
Attracts birds and butterflies
Tolerates deer, drought, clay soil, dry soil, shallow-rocky soil
Echinacea pallida
