"Purple Coneflower"
 
   Right now I have a coneflower in the shade and it is not doing well. I have another spot to move it but it does not get full sun. Can it tolerate some shade or should it be in full sun?

   Hi Karen,

Purple coneflower prefers full sun and will perform best there. It can tolerate half sun but will not fair well in shade. It will probably live but your blooms will be sparse.

Bye, Diane
