Plant Features

Our Green Envy Echinacea Plant will be a conversation starter with anyone who happens to see it; so be sure to plant it where it can be seen! This heat resistant Coneflower has a deep, olive green cone that radiates out from a lighter green center. The petals, being rounded, rather than elongated, are ridged and curl gently backwards at the tips. The most unusual characteristic is the lovely pink coloring at the base of the petal that flows outwards towards the tip. To further enhance this unique specimen, the leaves are dark green, lance-shaped, serrated and 3 to 8-inches long. Known to attract bees and butterflies, this amazing specimen will last up to two weeks when cut! No wonder they named it Green Envy!

Our Echinacea Plants are grown with care and without harmful pesticides, making them a safe and beneficial addition to your garden. Guaranteed to arrive healthy and ready to thrive!

Planting Instructions:

  • - Plant in spring or fall for best results
  • - Space plants 18-24 inches apart to allow for proper growth and air circulation

Soil Preparation:

  • - Ideal soil pH: 6.0-7.0
  • - Prefers well-drained soil, tolerates poor or sandy soils

Watering Specifics:

  • - Water regularly until established, allowing soil to dry out between waterings
  • - Once mature, Echinacea is drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering

Fertilizer Type:

  • - Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring if soil fertility is low
  • - Excessive fertilizing can lead to leggy growth; minimal feeding is best

Pruning and Training:

  • - Deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms, but leave some seed heads for winter interest and wildlife
  • - Cut back in late fall or early spring to clean up old growth

Additional Pest Management:

  • - Echinacea is generally pest and disease resistant, but occasionally monitor for aphids or leaf miners
  • - Ensure good air circulation to prevent any fungal issues

Blooming Indicators:

  • - Blooms from midsummer to early fall with large, daisy-like flowers in shades of pink, purple, or white

Temperature Tolerance:

  • - Hardy in USDA zones 3-9, tolerates light frost and heat

Companion Plants for Echinacea:

  • - Rudbeckia: Complements Echinacea’s bright blooms with yellow daisy-like flowers
  • - Salvia: Adds vertical spikes of blue or purple that pair well with Echinacea’s bold colors
  • - Penstemon: Provides a contrasting texture with its tubular blooms
  • - Lavender: Offers a fragrant, drought-tolerant partner that blends beautifully with Echinacea
  • - Achillea: Pairs well with Echinacea’s bright flowers while attracting pollinators

Green Envy Echinacea

My order processed really quickly and customer service was really helpful. My plants arrived quickly and were very well packed. This was a late season purchase so they haven't established yet but look very good so far.

Strong Healthy Echinacea Plant

The Green Envy plant arrived in excellent shape and with a bit of filtered light and water it perked right up. I noted strong roots as I was planting it. Excellent packaging!

Wowza :)

What an amazing echinacea flower! Planted new arrival in spring & as summer went on, colors got deeper. Oct. 1st still blooming with even deeper color. I find most Echinacea take a couple of seasons to really take off, can't wait til next year!

Exellent product and service!

Although I had been using another online source for my perennials I chanced upon GrowJoy actually looking for a source for morning glory plants which do not germinate well for me. I have had such an incredibly positive experience from this company that I will be using them for future orders. Firstly, the packaging is the most superior I have seen. I ordered late from both this company and my usual source and I cannot tell you how impressive the difference was. My original source sent plants that were much too leggy and weak and were damaged in shipment. I had to call for several replacements and generally the shipment did not meet my expectations. I assumed it was because I had ordered so late. But when my even later order of the Green Envy Echinacea arrived from GrowJoy, I realized there was no excuse for the earlier shipment I had received from another company. 100% of my order arrived in excellent condition and is thriving. I can't wait to order again!!!!

Great Company

I received my order in great time. The Echinacea plants were in amazing shape (thanks to the great packaging). My flowers are close to blooming already! Thank you.

Green Envy

Both these Echinacea plants were small in size. I have planted both in very sunny area on each side of a bird bath. Although small in size they seen to be doing well. Hoping to see some flowers in bloom.
