 o
have you seen this echinacea?

I have a few different varieties of echinacea, including white swan, magnus, bright star, and kim's knee high. This was growing out of my white swan clump, the foliage about 18" taller than white swan, and the flower is almost twice as large and pink in color, anyone know what it is? (The different lights give the same flower a different shade of pink)

It might be E. pallida, or E. angustifolia, or a hybrid of either. The narrow petals look very dainty.

I ran across an endangered species of echinacea called, "Tenneseensis" at a local nursery. I bought several of them and it looks like your photo. In your search engine, type in "pics of Echinacea Tenneseensis" and see if you agree. With all the varieties out there, it's difficult to say for sure.

Hi. I know this goes a bit back but this one reminds me of Echinacea Sunset. It looks like the plant I bought last season. Your petals look a little curled up and that is how mine opened up. Or it could be E.Pallida.
