Magnus Purple Coneflower 1 Live Perennial Plant, Half Gallon Pot – Echinacea purpurea ‘Magnus’

Magnus Purple Coneflower (Echinacea purpurea ‘Magnus’) is a hardy, herbaceous flowering perennial admired for its large rosy-purple blossoms, prominent orange-brown central cones, and upright, clump-forming growth habit. This ornamental selection of purple coneflower is well suited to perennial borders, cottage gardens, prairie-style landscapes, and pollinator gardens.

During summer, Magnus Purple Coneflower produces showy, daisy-like flowers with broad, rosy-purple petals arranged around raised, coppery-orange to orange-brown centers. Unlike some traditional purple coneflowers with strongly drooping petals, ‘Magnus’ is known for petals that tend to extend more horizontally. Its flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, while developing seed heads may provide seasonal interest and attract seed-eating birds.

Magnus Purple Coneflower performs best in full sun and prefers well-drained soil. Once established, it generally tolerates periods of dry weather and adapts to a range of garden soil conditions. Its upright, clumping growth habit makes it useful in mixed perennial beds, naturalistic plantings, and sunny garden borders. As an herbaceous perennial, it naturally dies back aboveground and enters dormancy during winter.

Each order includes 1 live Magnus Purple Coneflower plant supplied in a half-gallon nursery container.
