Plant description
This distinctive new coneflower is noted for its strong stems, which stand up well to wet and windy weather, and its prolonged flowering period. Often multi-headed, the flowers appear in succession, and at varying heights, which makes it particularly well suited to naturalised planting schemes.

How to care for Echinacea Pretty Parasols ('JS Engeltje') (PBR):
Lift and divide congested colonies in autumn or spring. In autumn cut back all dead flower stems to the ground. Coneflowers benefit from a spring or autumn mulch with well-rotted compost.
Please note:
This perennial dies back to below ground level each year in autumn, then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
