Echinacea 'Magnus Superior'
Plant in full sun in well-drained soil with supplementary water during dry periods. Remove spent flowerheads and stems regularly to keep plants tidy and promote repeat flowering. At the end of autumn, the last of the bronze coloured cones can be left over winter, especially attractive when combined with ornamental grasses. Cut back old foliage to a low mound prior to new growth appearing in spring. Divide plants every 3-4 years in autumn or collect seed from dry flowerheads.
