PowWow White Echinacea is a freely branching native perennial with strong upright stems that do not need staking and medium green foliage. The large fragrant flowers with overlapping white petals and yellow-brown cone bloom from late spring through summer and sporadically until frost. Thrives in full sun and well-drained soils. The flowers attract butterflies and bees, and spent stems will stay erect and attract birds if not removed. Drought tolerant.
