This beautiful wildflower blooms with bright rays of rose colored flowers! This is our favorite Echinacea, but it is an extremely rare species. The foliage consists of hairy stems with deep green slender leaves. It is somewhat shorter than Purple Coneflower, but the blossoms are a brighter rose color. As the name suggests, this wildflower originates from Tennessee.
