Echinacea 'Fragrant Angel'

Echinacea 'Fragrant Angel' is prized for its lusciously scented, large white coneflower blooms up to 13 cm (5 in) in diameter! It has a daisy-like appearance, featuring a large central cone and proved irresistible in pollinator trials (2018–2019) - attracting more bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds than any other coneflower tested.

The porcelain-white petals are arranged in elegant double rows surrounding a striking yellowish-orange cone. Unlike many white varieties with reflexed petals, Fragrant Angel Coneflower showcases uniquely horizontal petals that create a fuller and more open appearance. The showy flowers bloom generously from July to frost, delivering months of vibrant beauty.

Growing in an upright clump up to 75 cm (2.5 ft) tall with a spread of approximately 60 cm (2 ft), this white coneflower plant has sturdy well-branched stems that do not require staking. Perfect for mass plantings, naturalized areas, or as a stunning mid-border feature, Echinacea 'Fragrant Angel' pairs beautifully with bold companions such as Rudbeckia (Black-eyed Susans). The blooms are excellent for fresh arrangements or drying. Left standing, the seed heads add winter interest and provide food for seed-loving birds.

Deer- and rabbit-resistant, and drought tolerant once established, Fragrant Angel Coneflower thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. This low-maintenance perennial will rebloom without deadheading and readily self-seeds if a few seed heads are left in place. This cheerful and majestic white Echinacea is sure to turn heads and bring life to any landscape.
