While most coneflowers play on the hot side of the color wheel, this coneflower goes another direction – opting for elegant, luminous white. The Price is White offers the same incredible blooming power as its relatives, this coneflower offers a light, sweet fragrance, and is a magnet for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. The flowers are beautiful at every stage; emerging, the flowers look like upward-facing green shuttlecocks, then comes the overlapping white petals and the cone, which becomes green dusted with gold and opens up to a Fibonacci grid that is fascinating to watch.
A variety of our native Echinacea purpurea, this coneflower offers large, five-inch flowers held upright in a bright ivory. They make superb cut flowers, are deer-resistant, and heat- and drought-tolerant. In the “Color Coded” series, they are propagated by tissue culture, ensuring the flowers are uniform in shape and color. Price is White makes an ideal upright container thriller, with a height of 22 inches and a spread of 18, but would also be fantastic in a cutting garden, pollinator garden dry (xeric) garden, moon garden, or anywhere you’d like a ray of white and gold to light up your garden.
Color Coded The Price is White Coneflower Care
Price is White is hardy from USDA zones 4 through 8, so it can take heat and cold well. It loves sunny locations, though it may tolerate some shade. It does require impeccable drainage from the soil, so containers with good drainage, and especially raised beds are excellent choices for pots. In the landscape it will tolerate poor sandy soil as long as moisture is consistent. Slopes, even parking strips or urban locations are fine with regular watering.
Echinaceas will not survive standing water, however, so if your region has consistently mild and wet winters, take these precautions to prevent rot: leave stems intact from fall through spring when new growth emerges, and mulch with stones or gravel to repel winter rains. An extra bonus of leaving some flowers up over the winter is you’ll help feed hungry songbirds. Coneflowers are not heavy feeders; for fertilizer, a top-dressing compost or slow-release fertilizer at planting time and again each spring should keep them happy.
Color Coded The Price is White Coneflower Spacing
Eighteen inches is a good spacing to use in creating a border of these gorgeous, hard-working, long-blooming plants; in seasonal containers, you can go a little more narrow for fullness.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
