Echinacea, it’s hanging on in there… (Echinacea purpurea (Coneflower))

My first attempt at growing an echinacea. It’s had 3 flowers so far with some buds possibly going to bloom!
It’s struggling and a bit ropey looking, but, fingers crossed it’ll flourish next year….

Thank you, Paul, Ange and Klahanie!!! I'm really hoping they come back bigger and better next year!!! 🤞

Looks good from here. My first seedlings were decimated by slugs, but the second batch got to flowering stage and have increased steadily since.
