Echinacea purpurea ‘Southern Belle’ is a new arrival for 2024 and a dazzling attention seeker with intriguing, tufty flowers which are borne from July through to October each year.

Foliage is verdant and bushy, emerging in March and remaining until the first frosts – offering gap-filling interest even before the pollinator-friendly blooms emerge. Your colourful and sumptuous Echinacea purpurea ‘Southern Belle’ offers rich shades of magenta pink and has a naturalising, spreading habit of around 75cm to offer generous clumps of drought tolerant flowers over time.
