Sunrise to Sundown Echinacea Collection

Your garden will absolutely shine when you indulge in the sunny beauty of this Coneflower collection! Echinacea are easy to grow and long-lived, boasting a very hardy nature and sending up gorgeous blooms that draw in butterflies in the summer and songbirds in the fall. This brilliant collection includes one each of 'Solar Flare', Sundown™, and 'Sunrise'.

'Solar Flare' has radiant red petals held straight out from very dark brown cones, forming an absolutely enormous bloom! The stems are dark red to brown as well, creating a nice platform for the rosy-toned flowers, which arise from early summer into mid-fall in most climates. Compact plants just 2 to 3 feet tall and 1½ to 2 feet wide are well-branched and free-flowering over a long season, boasting the adaptability and garden vigor for which Echinacea is famous.

Sundown™ is the latest in the exciting Big Sky™ collection. This flower-happy golden-orange variety has long, crowded petals held straight out around a big russet-brown cone! Well-branched, compact plants bloom tirelessly for months, giving you all the cut flowers you want, plus plenty left over for the butterflies. Let the final blooms dry on the plant and watch the songbirds come feast on the cones in chilly autumn. Easy to grow, endlessly floriferous, and even deer resistant, this new Coneflower offers unbeatable color over a long, long season!

'Sunrise' has giant, wonderfully fragrant YELLOW blooms a full 4½ to 5 inches wide that cover the hale-and-hearty plant all summer long in the hot, sunny garden. Perfect for cutting, the blooms have stems the diameter of pencils, and are even sweetly fragrant! There has never been an Echinacea like 'Sunrise'! The blooms will be deep yellow when they open and mature to a buttery, lighter shade. A breakthrough in color, fragrance, and size! Zones 4-8.
