Purple Coneflower

This great landscape flower in watercolor on high quality paper and paint brightens not only a sunny scape but now your wall!
Fun Facts:
• Coneflowers create a phenomenon is known as “allelopathy” producing and secreting chemicals that prevent competing plants from growing nearby.
• Coneflowers begin odorless, but when pollination is needed, the plant starts to emit a honey-like scent that attracts bees and butterflies. After pollination the Coneflowers will smell sweet and vanilla-like.
• More than 200 medicines are derived from the purple Coneflower extract and is marketed as an herbal medicine for blood purification.
• Great in tough conditions, the Coneflower is drought-tolerant, full sun and in partial shade grown and are low maintenance growing easily in the wild.

Finding this flower to photograph was much easier than I anticipated. It's use in landscapes around houses and wooded edging was prominent on my walks. Getting to the flowers however was a little uncomfortable for my husband as I wandered onto peoples driveways or side properties to get a great photograph. Alas, no one shoed me away and I have wonderful pictures.
