What Makes Survival Garden Seeds Different - non-GMO heirloom seeds

Add graceful color and ecological value to your garden with Pale Purple Coneflower Seeds (Echinacea pallida) from Survival Garden Seeds. This native North American wildflower features delicate lavender-pink petals that gracefully droop around a tall, spiky cone—creating a striking vertical accent in meadows, borders, and naturalized landscapes.

Highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, Pale Purple Coneflower blooms from midsummer through fall, providing an essential nectar source when many other flowers have faded. Reaching 2–4 feet in height, this hardy perennial thrives in full sun to partial shade and adapts easily to a variety of soils, including sandy or loamy types. Once established, it’s naturally drought-tolerant and deer-resistant, making it a reliable, low-maintenance addition to pollinator gardens, wildflower meadows, or xeriscapes.

Native Beauty for Pollinators & Landscapes:

  • Elegant pale pink to lavender blooms with distinctive cone centers
  • Provides vital nectar for late-season bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds
  • Strong, drought-tolerant plants thrive in full sun and poor soils
  • Deer-resistant and resilient across a wide range of conditions
  • Adds vertical structure and natural charm to prairie or garden settings

Medicinal & Herbal Value:

  • Traditionally used in herbal teas and remedies for immune support*
  • Valuable addition to medicinal or survival gardens
  • Offers both ornamental appeal and traditional herbal significance

*For ornamental and educational use only. Consult a qualified expert before internal use
