Echinacea 'Green Twister' is a distinctive coneflower with lime-green petals flushed lilac-pink toward the centre, giving each bloom a fresh, two-tone look that draws the eye through summer.

It forms a sturdy clump with upright stems and prominent central cones, making it excellent for wildlife-friendly borders, prairie-style planting and cut flowers.

Plant in full sun or light shade in well-drained soil, avoiding sites that remain wet in winter. Once established, it is notably tolerant of heat and short dry spells.

Deadhead to prolong flowering or leave some seedheads standing for autumn structure and birds, then cut back old stems once growth finishes.

Liatris spicata is a striking perennial for sunny borders, producing upright flower spikes that add height and rhythm to planting schemes, prairie-style gardens, and cutting patches in late summer.

With narrow, grass-like foliage and bottlebrush blooms in purplish-pink tones, it forms neat clumps that mix easily with grasses and daisies, bringing strong vertical accents without looking heavy.

Plant corms in full sun in light to moderately fertile soil that drains well yet stays reliably moist in summer. Avoid waterlogged winter ground, which can reduce vigour and flowering.

Water during dry spells while growth is active, and keep weeds down so stems develop strongly. Deadhead to extend the display, then cut stems back to the ground in winter once foliage has faded.

Superb for pollinator-friendly borders and long-lasting cut flowers, liatris brings colour and structure when many earlier perennials are finishing, helping to carry the garden through to autumn.
