I have some nice displays of coneflower in the Orchard. I have good clumps in the fig bed, the apple bed, the front bed, the Jujube bed and here and there where seeds have taken hold. Coneflower, or echinacea, is an excellent herb to have around - I will never harvest it, but I like to know I could if I ever needed to. It is an antioxident, an anti-inflammatory, it lowers blood sugar and improves immunity to battle infections and viruses. Bees and butterflies love it.
