This review is from: Green Eyes Coneflower - Echinacea - Potted - Shocking!

I had to fight to keep a small plant alive but this one was a fighter and the bloom is starting to open, I can not wait to see it in its full glory. cone flowers bought online are very small for the price, going to Lowes you can find them in a large size and they come back year after year. And they will be blooming their first summer.
