Welcome June! It has been super hot the last week here in Austin, Texas, and very few of the plants in my garden are looking good right now. One of the exceptions is Echinacea purpurea ‚PowWow’. This beautiful white coneflower seems to love the heat and is relatively drought and humidity tolerant. So it is an ideal plant for Central Texas. It Is also supposed to attract butterflies and hummingbirds even though I have to say I haven’t seen neither feasting on my plant. I have often complained on my Instagram account about how hard it is to garden here in Austin. And I do believe everyone who is gardening in this area will attest to that. But I have decided to try to find plants that like to live in the conditions that my garden has to offer and that I love. That will make my life as an organic gardener much easier and also will probably make for a much more satisfying gardening experience. Coneflowers are definitively belonging in this plant category. Anther good thing is that they also fit into my desired cottage garden style and there are many different varieties out there. So one thing is for certain, I will go on the hunt to find some other echinacea varieties in the near future! Are you also garden in a challenging climate? What is a plant that naturally thrives your area? #organicgardendreams #echinacea #echinsceapurpurea #echinaceapowwow #powwow #whiteechinacea #echinaceaflower #echinaceaflowers #inmygardentoday #inmygarden #inmygardennow #austingardener #austingarden #centraltexasgardener #cottagegarden #cottagegardens #cottagegardenstyle #organicgardening #organicgardener #gardening #whiteflowers #whiteflowers #cottagegardening #fortheloveofgardening #perennial #droughttolerant #heattolerant #droughttoletantplants #coneflower #coneflowers (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeR89K-OVsR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
