Awesome! I love echinacea! My property has a bunch planted in the garden beds! I cannot wait to see if they're the purple ones or other colors! Perennials and Biennials are definitely my plants of choice. Annuals just seem like a waste of money. Unless I am creating a hanging planter or something. Sometimes the annuals are the most fragrant type of flowers! I am always looking for good smelling flowers! (any suggestions? I have lilac and some pretty fragrant rose bushes at the moment).
Sorry my Dad would perhaps have been able to give good advise he was an avid gardner both flowers and vegetables and knew so much about them, I missed that gene and have whatever is the opposite of a green thumb :)
