Butterfly Mix, 25% off: 25 Purple Coneflower, 25 White Coneflower, 25 Black Eyed Susan
This is the perfect solution when you want to attract butterflies.
When gardeners wish to attract butterflies, they often end up with this trio of perennials resulting in a parade of beautiful butterflies. Purple Coneflower and White Coneflower are the highest of the three garden standards reaching up to 3 feet. With regal ruby petals and elegant white petals both offer blooms the size tea-cup saucers filled with sweet nectar for butterflies and hummingbirds. Black Eyed Susan reaches about 2 feet in height, offering a second layer of sunny golden blooms dotted with chocolate drop centers. This perennial trifecta is guaranteed to bring long blooms (June-October in most regions) that will be a hit with butterflies during the growing season and birds once the flower heads go to seed. With this package you will achieve beauty outside, the ability to bring gorgeous cut-flowers inside, and a butterfly/hummingbird feeding frenzy you won't want to stop watching. And did we mention we've discounted this package just for you? Hover over or click the butterfly thumbnails below for photographs of butterflies on these three plants.
Echinacea purpurea 'Magnus' (Purple Coneflower) is easy to grow and forms neat clumps of foliage. From early summer to early autumn, it produces dazzling, vibrant, rose-pink/purple daisy-like flowers that beckon butterflies and hummingbirds. In addition to less droopy petals, its blooms are lightly fragrant and at (up to) 6 inches across, larger than most other Echinaceas. Magnus is moderately tolerant of salt and is by far one of the best perennials on the market today. Mature height 25-36" and a spread of 18-25", spacing 15-20". [ more information ] Echinacea purpurea 'White Swan' (White Coneflower) is a coneflower offering ease of growth and tidy clumps of foliage. From early summer to early autumn, it produces striking, bright, fragrant, white daisy-like flowers. This cultivar has prominent coppery-green central cones that are surrounded by white radial petals. 'White Swan' has a mature height 25-36" and a spread of 18-25", spacing 15-20". [ more information ] Rudbeckia fulgida 'Goldsturm' (Black Eyed Susan, Golden Coneflower) has giant masses of dramatic 1- to 2-inch golden-yellow blooms encasing a chocolate brown/black cone center. Tolerant of heat, drought and poor soil, perennials do not come any easier or more hardy and striking. 'Goldsturm' works exceptionally well in both residential and commercial landscapes, because of its durability and dramatic visual impact. It attracts butterflies, makes an excellent cut flower, and adapts to a wide variety of soil conditions. Once established, it spreads rapidly. Mature height 18-30", spacing 12-25".
