Yet another amazing breakthrough in colour, this remarkable hybrid Coneflower features deep rose-pink petals surrounding a large burgundy-red button-shaped cone. Blooms are delightfully fragrant, the plants well-branched, strong and bushy in habit. Ideal for sunny borders and growing in mixed containers. Attractive to butterflies. Excellent for cutting. Coneflowers begin blooming in midsummer and continue for months if faded flowers are regularly removed. This is the third introduction in the Big Sky™ series from ItSaul Plants in Georgia.
