Color Name: PowWow Wild Berry
PowWow Wild Berry packs a punch with the incredible color of its blossom, its outstanding performance, and excellent branching habit. Retaining their color as they mature, the bright deep purple-pink flowers are beautifully carried on sturdy, well-branched stems. Best performance comes in full sun and well-drained soils. Enjoy PowWow Wild Berry as it bursts into life under the heat of midsummer. It is a pollinator magnet and during late fall to winter the seed heads will serve as food for birds.
Praised for their cheerful brightly colored flowers, coneflowers are a mainstay in today's garden. Be sure to leave some spent blooms on the plants in the fall because their seeds provide winter food for finches and other birds. The dried seed heads also provide architectural interest in the winter.
Growing Tips: Coneflowers like it sunny and hot. Though they will tolerate light shade, fewer flowers will be produced and the plants will be weakened. Light, loamy soils are best but coneflowers will grow in any well-drained soil. Once established, they are quite drought tolerant. If properly cared for, they will form attractive colonies and will live for many years.
