Editor's Note

Yellow prairie coneflowers are a fantastic addition to naturalistic or cottage-style gardens. Their height and unique silhouette provide excellent vertical interest, especially when planted en masse. Pair them with purple or blue perennials like salvia to create a high-contrast color scheme that pops against a summer sky while supporting local pollinators and adding airy movement.
