What's attracted to the Echinacea Plant?
Birds and butterflies. I am also glad the deer don't find the Echinacea plant appealing.
How is the Echinacea plant used?
Supposedly it has medicinal benefits and is available in tea, juice or tablets. I use it as cut flower to add color to a fresh flower arrangement.
