Echinacea (Coneflower)
×
Color Name: Sombrero Adobe Orange
Sombrero Adobe Orange will impress you with its 2-3", intense orange flowers, with a matching orange cone that really makes the color pop. Dark green foliage is completely covered with flowers. One of the best orange Echinacea to date!
Praised for their cheerful brightly colored flowers, coneflowers are a mainstay in today's garden. Be sure to leave some spent blooms on the plants in the fall because their seeds provide winter food for finches and other birds. The dried seed heads also provide architectural interest in the winter.
Growing Tips: Coneflowers like it sunny and hot. Though they will tolerate light shade, fewer flowers will be produced and the plants will be weakened. Light, loamy soils are best but coneflowers will grow in any well-drained soil. Once established, they are quite drought tolerant.
