Echinacea ‘Sunrise’


Big Sky Coneflower

 USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.196.630


A remarkable hybrid Coneflower in a unique designer colour. Plants are strong and bushy in habit, ideal for sunny borders and growing in mixed containers. Large and fragrant flowers have soft creamy-yellow petals surrounding a central cone that begins green, later changing to golden orange. The rose-scented blooms are attractive to butterflies. Excellent for cutting. Coneflowers begin blooming in midsummer and continue for months if faded flowers are regularly removed. USPP#16235: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
