What is Echinacea paradoxa

Echinacea paradoxa (scientific name: Echinacea paradoxa) is a cold hardy perennial (lodging plant) native to North America. It is one of the original species of Echinacea. It is similar to rudbeckii, but the tongue-shaped flowers are slender and droop as they bloom. On the other hand, the central tubular flower (the cone part) is raised and stays long after the tongue flower has fallen.
Other name "yellow coneflower" is derived from the yellow petals and the tubular flowers that rise in a cone-like shape.
The genus name, Echinacea, is derived from the Greek word echina (hedgehog) and is named for the shape of the central tubular flower. Native Americans use it as a medicinal plant, and it is also used in health foods in North America. It is also suitable for cut flowers.
