The first purple coneflowers I added to my garden was about 4 years ago, could be longer, tag just says 'Eastern Native plant', both are doing great, when first planted one didn't do very well, too much shade, I relocated it and since then it has been fine. This year I added 'Prairie Splendor, 'Cheyenne Spirit' and 'Fatal Attraction, it will be interesting to see how well they do this winter, they looked good all summer.
Frillie, Blanket flowers do very well here, I did manage to kill 2 plants that I had for a few years by moving them too often, poor things. The one I have now is about 4 years old and I have moved it a couple of times, but it did great this year.
