Is the PowWow Wildberry Purple Coneflower a disease resistant plant?

Asked by: Jenn

Hi Jenn, thanks for your question! Echinacea plants are prized for their drought-tolerance, deer-resistance and they are awesome for attracting pollinators, but like all plants, can be occasionally troubled by common pests and diseases. The best prevention is to ensure the plant is grown in a sunny spot with excellent soil drainage so the roots do not sit in waterlogged soil. Remove weeds and other plant debris from around the plant regularly, as that can be a common source of pests and diseases. The most common diseases to affect Echinacea are powdery mildew and Asters Yellow. Powdery mildew can be prevented by not planting the coneflowers too close together and providing lots of sun and well-drained soil. Asters Yellow is a more problematic disease that affects many ornamental plants and even some vegetables, and while it is a serious disease, it has a low incidence rate in Canada. In general, Echinacea are easy-care and should do well in your landscape, with the critical success pieces being full sun exposure (6+ hours per day during the growing season) and very well-drained soil so the plant's roots are able to get adequate moisture but don't stay soggy for long periods of time, which for most plants can lead to root rot or other problems. Good luck, and happy gardening!
