This Eastern Purple Coneflower (Echinacea purpure) is one of many that are about to pop open and provide food for our pollinators all summer long. I cannot wait to see what shows up in our gardens and yards – the bees, the butterflies, and the unexpected. The plant has a beautiful look to it even before the flower explodes with stunning colors. Every single bit of nature is art!
