Description
If you’re looking for a statement piece to update your garden’s wardrobe this season, then look no further than this effortlessly stylish little number, Echinacea purpurea 'Green Jewel'! Green flowers are so hot right now, but with a timeless elegance too – and do you know what the best thing about them is? Darling, they go with absolutely everything! The fabulous Echinacea 'Green Jewel' showcases central flower cones in a chic shade of lime, flaunting a skirt of lace-edged green petals, to turn your borders into catwalk this summer.
Echineaceas are famously low-maintenance, and the showy Echinacea 'Green Jewel' is no exception to the rule. They do prefer full sun in exchange for the best display, but don’t require a lot of water, making them ideal for a dry garden or prairie border. Poor, gravelly soils are perfect for them, the strong stems don’t require staking, and you don’t need to worry about feeding (in fact, very rich soils may cause their growth to become overly long and droopy), so you can sit back, relax, and watch the show!

Other information
-
Soak the Echinacea 'Green Jewel' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your "Coneflower" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost in spring and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed. Some varieties are a length of root which should be planted lengthways and shallowly (1-2cm deep).
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
