Echinacea serotina
Also called Purple Coneflower, Broad Leaved Purple Coneflower, Purple Cone Flower
Echinacea serotina is a North American wildflower in the daisy family, closely related to the common purple coneflower, with stiffer, bristly leaves. It is grown in gardens for its purple, daisy-like blooms and is most at home in sunny, well-drained spots.
Echinacea serotina, the narrow-leaved purple coneflower or blacksamson echinacea, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is native to the states of Arkansas and Louisiana in the United States. The species is sometimes listed as being found only in Louisiana, but the type collection was made in Arkansas, part of Louisiana at the time.
Echinacea serotina is very similar to E. purpurea but with stiffer, bristly hairs on the foliage.
