Milkshake Echinacea is an upright free-branching native perennial with strong stems that do not need staking and grey-green foliage. The large fragrant flowers are vanilla white with large pom-pom like centers that are yellow when young and bloom from summer through fall. Thrives in full sun and well-drained soils. The double flowers may attract less butterflies and bees, but spent stems will stay erect and attract birds if not removed. Drought tolerant.
