Product description
A compact but heavy flowering variety with relatively large flowers which contrast nicely with the foliage and produce a light fragrance. The Echinacea 'White Mediation', more commonly known as Coneflower, is a herbaceous perennial shrub with rough, clumping, dark green foliage beneath upright stems carrying flowers with a large, rounded centre cone of yellow-brown surrounded by narrow, pure white petals. The flowers bloom around mid-Summer and usually last until the early Autumn months.
Plant in moderately moist, humus-rich, well-drained soil and keep in full sun, though it can tolerate some shade. Keep sheltered in regions with harsh Winters. Waterlogged or overly dry soils can both cause damage and stem wilt.
Please Note: Images are for illustrative purposes only and designed to be a representation of the item(s) being sold. Herbaceous plants die back below the soil in the Winter and may be supplied in their dormant state during this time. Fresh growth will be seen the following Spring.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Top Tip
Deadhead spent blooms to extend flowering and encourage new growth. Leave some seed heads for winter interest and to attract wildlife like birds.
How to Water
Water young plants regularly during their first growing season, keeping the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Once established, Echinacea is drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering.
How to Plant
Plant Echinacea in well-drained soil in a sunny location. Dig a hole as deep as the root ball and twice as wide. Place the plant in the hole, backfill with soil, and firm gently. Space plants 30-60cm apart. Water thoroughly after planting to help them settle.
