PowWow puts more flowers on every plant than any other seed echinacea, whether grown for first-year Spring sales or as a traditional overwintered perennial. The color-packed duo is also faster to flower and genetically shorter than the competition, making it easy to grow and ship on racks. No PGRs are needed to maintain controlled height in quart or gallon programs. Very drought-tolerant, easy-care plants stay tidy at retail with long holdability, and look great in the garden. Deep rose-purple 3 to 4 inch flowers that retain color on the plant longer.
