Easy Garden Memorial- Purple Coneflower

July 11, 2011 urngarden.com

If you are looking for an easy low maintenance planting for a grave site or memorial garden,  a flower that comes to mind is the Purple Coneflower. A personal favorite for it’s wild beauty and the healing properties of Echinacea.   Hearty and drought resistant, they keep reseeding  and come back every year. The genus name “echino” translates in Greek to hedgehog.
