Wavy-leaf Coneflower is easily grown in evenly moist to dry, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade.  Flowering is better in full sun.

This is an adaptable plant that is drought, heat, humidity and poor soil tolerant, how much better can it get?!  Plants usually rebloom without deadheading, and leaving the seedheads provides for birds.

Host plant for Silvery Checkerspot.  Deer and Drought Resistant!
