<\/b>Echinacea purpurea<\/i> (eastern purple coneflower<\/b> or purple coneflower<\/b>) is a species<\/font><\/a> of flowering plant<\/font><\/a> in the genus<\/font><\/a> Echinacea<\/font><\/a><\/i> of the family<\/font><\/a> Asteraceae<\/font><\/a>.[<\/span>1]<\/span><\/font><\/font><\/a><\/sup> Its cone-shaped flowering heads are usually, but not always, purple in the wild.[<\/span>2]<\/span><\/font><\/font><\/a><\/sup>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/div>\n

It is <\/font>native<\/font><\/a> to eastern North America[<\/span>1]<\/span><\/font><\/a><\/sup> and present to some extent in the wild in much of the eastern, southeastern and midwest United States.[<\/span>3]<\/span><\/font><\/a><\/sup><\/font><\/span>\u00a0<\/div>\n
This <\/font>herbaceous<\/font><\/a> <\/font>perennial<\/font><\/a> is 120 cm (47 in) tall by 50 cm (20 in) wide at maturity. Depending on the climate, it blooms throughout spring and summer. Its individual flowers (florets) within the flower head are <\/font>hermaphroditic<\/font><\/a>, having both male and female organs on each flower. It is <\/font>pollinated<\/font><\/a> by butterflies and bees.<\/font>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/div>\n
Its <\/font>habitats<\/font><\/a> include dry open woods, prairies and barrens, as well as cultivated beds. Although the plant prefers <\/font>loamy<\/font><\/a> or sandy, well-drained soils, it is little affected by the soil’s <\/font>pH<\/font><\/a>.<\/font><\/span>\u00a0<\/div>\n

Asteraceae Fortnight Part 3-Ligulate Heads (and Misc.): Echinacea purpurea from Chicago, Illinois, SC 05<\/a> :<\/span>\u00a0Attachments<\/span> (4<\/span>). 3 posts by 2 authors.<\/span><\/div>\n
Here is one common ornamental species<\/font> of Asteraceae<\/i> of midwest<\/font> United States<\/font><\/span><\/font> and is called <\/b>purple coneflower<\/b>. It blooms from <\/font><\/span>June to August and has pink, purple color.<\/font>\u00a0\u00a0<\/div>\n
Date: 10th<\/sup> July, 2013<\/font><\/font><\/span><\/div>\n

Diagnostic features<\/font>: <\/span>Upper stems terminate in individual flowerheads. Each daisy-like flowerhead has 10-20\u00a0ray florets that surround a large central cone of numerous disk florets. The central cone is yellowish brown to reddish brown, somewhat flattened, and very prickly. The petaloid rays are purple, narrowly oblong, and they\u00a0tend to droop downward with age. Bracts are green, hairy, and narrowly lanceolate, becoming recurved when the flowerhead blooms. In bright sunlight, the flowerheads are mildly fragrant. Afterwards, the disk florets are replaced by dark achenes that are narrow and flat.<\/font>\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
The flowers of Echinacea species are used to make an extremely popular herbal tea, purported to help strengthen the immune system.<\/font><\/div>\n
Echinacea<\/font><\/span><\/i>\u00a0comes from the Greek word\u00a0echinos<\/font><\/span><\/i>\u00a0meaning hedgehog in reference to the spiny center cone.<\/font>\u00a0<\/p>\n

A Purple Cone Flower taken on the 18th April at Mapro Garden, Mahabaleshwar.<\/font><\/div>\n
I think it is\u00a0from the family Echinacea<\/i>.<\/div>\n
Kindly confirm.<\/p>\n
\n

This is Echinacea<\/i> sps. from Asteraceae<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n

Although leaves would help in fixing species, but length of rays relative to disc suggests Echinacea angustifolia<\/i><\/p>\n

\n

I am supporting … in this ID. I too think this plant is Echinacea angustifolia<\/i>.<\/p>\n
