One of my favorite prairie plants that is prettier in the wild than when grown in a nursery. Pale purple coneflower (Echinacea pallida) Fun fact: all coneflowers were used as medicinal plants by native Americans and the roots are still used to make herbal medicines and tonics. #herb #herbs #herbalmedicine #nativeamericanmedicine #tonic #prairie #prairieflower #prairieflowers #coneflower #coneflowers #kansasflowers #kansasplants #kansasnativeplants #outdoors #plants #prairieplants #midwest #outdoorphotography #iphonephoto #iphonecamera (at Rantoul, Kansas) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzE-v4EAuQG/?igshid=1j6mpooezcf2t
