Echinacea purpurea 'Magnus'
Choose Magnus Coneflower for a sunny perennial bed that needs strong summer color and pollinator draw; the tradeoff is that it wants sun and decent drainage, not a shaded or constantly wet spot.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | Large pink-purple blooms and upright stems give it strong presence in a sunny mixed border. |
| Growth Rate | A- | It establishes quickly for a perennial when planted in the right sun and soil. |
| Maintenance | B+ | It is easy to manage, though deadheading or late-season cleanup keeps it looking neater. |
| Deer Resistance | B+ | Deer tend to leave this alone, though hungry deer may sample it where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | B- | It works in average beds but can feel too upright and coarse in very tight foundation spaces. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Magnus for sunny mixed borders where the customer wants color, pollinators, and a plant that can handle summer heat without needing constant attention.

Yes, coneflowers are good pollinator plants, especially in sunny beds.
Deadhead for a cleaner look, or leave some cones for birds later.
Yes, but use a sunny spot and do not let the pot stay waterlogged.

Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
They're very "leggy" right now but that's not unexpected in the fall. Otherwise, they look healthy, and we're looking forward to seeing them next year.
These look so good! They're nice and full and lush. Should be amazing next summer.
So far so good! Ordering was easy. So was pickup. We're looking forward to seeing how it does in the spring.
