Tulsa Plant Recipe #22: The Mighty Coneflower in Full Glory

Coneflowers, also known as echinacea, are some of the most cheerful and reliable plants you can add to a Tulsa garden.

With their soft petals gently pointing downward and their bold, pin-cushion centers reaching toward the sun, coneflowers bring a sense of movement and joy to any landscape. They’re often called the “jolly jokers” of the garden—and it’s easy to see why.

In this planting, coneflowers are paired with Sunny Border Blue, creating a vibrant mix of color and texture. The combination adds depth while keeping the garden feeling light, natural, and inviting.

Coneflowers are also known for being low-maintenance and resilient, thriving in Tulsa’s climate with minimal care. They attract pollinators like bees and butterflies, making them a beautiful and beneficial addition to any outdoor space.
