Looking for something new and exciting to add to your garden? Echinacea ‘ Green Jewel’ PPAF will do just that. This is a new sweetly fragrant cultivar that was discovered by Piet Oudolf.
Green Jewel is a Coneflower that has a double row of light green petal rays, that surround a huge green cone in the center. It stands about 18”-24” tall and is about 12”-18” wide with a bloom ranging between 31/2” to 41/2”.
This plant does well through drought, humidity, poor soils and the cold once established with proper care.
Coneflowers prefer full sun and like to be watered when dry, but do not like wet or soggy roots. With regular deadheading they will continue to bloom all summer until frost.
During the warm months, these plants are beneficial for the butterflies in your yard and gardens. During the winter, those blooms not deadheaded will provide seed for several types of small birds to feed upon. Stalks of the coneflower can also be harvested and dried for fall and winter arrangements.
You are purchasing on one Elle plug 50mm size ( formerly known as the 21/2” pot.) Elle pots allow your plants to grow and yet are biodegradable for the environment. Transplanted into a 10” pot or one gallon container will finish off in about 6-8 weeks.

Komen foundation when I purchased these plants. By growing this plant you grow a litle bit of ‘hope’ too.
