Origins of Echinacea

Echinacea purpurea, also known as the purple coneflower, is a vibrant daisy-like flowering plant native to the United States and Canada. Its name comes from the Greek word for “sea urchin” because of its unique prickly cone head center. Early Native American tribes cultivated the plant for the treatment of colds, and it wasn’t until the late 1800’s that Europe and North America began to recognize its medicinal applications. Today, echinacea’s popularity continues to grow as new research reveals promising health benefits of the plant.
