Purple coneflower


This purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea) is part of the prairie planting along the trail between South 9th St. and Beck Lane on the south side of Lafayette. Echinacea purpurea is a native plant. It is very popular as a garden plant and you are more likely to encounter it where it has been placed rather than in its natural habitat. Picture taken July 16, 2009.
