This is 'White Swan' Echinacea. This gal is new to the garden. She is part of some of the new plantings this year that have been all white. These beauties have been blooming all Summer. I've cut them and brought them in for bouquets several times.
The bugs haven't bothered this plant. I gave it a bit of Plant-tone when I first planted it, other than that, no fertilizer. Although its a new addition to the garden, and the weather has been relatively dry, it is still thriving.
I'd say this will be a perennial I will plant more of next year. If it is like any of the other Echinacea, I might not need to buy them, there may be babies a plenty in the spring. Bring 'em on! More. More. MORE!
Can you see the 'Knock Out' Rose in the back? It's been blooming like that all summer as well.
