Purple Coneflower features large, daisy-like flowers with slightly drooping, rose purple petals and large, orange central cones. Flowers have a long bloom period from June to August. Flowers bloom on rigid stems typically growing to 3 feet tall. Leaves are dark green, 4 to 8 inches long are lance-shaped and coarsely-toothed.

The dead flower stems will remain erect well into the winter and, if flower heads are not removed, are often visited by goldfinches who feed on the seeds.
