Description
Common name: Coneflower
‘Sombrero Tres Amigos’ has vibrant peachy-orange blooms that mature to shades of rose and burgundy creating a bouquet of colors. Dark green foliage is completely covered with flowers. Sombrero® plants are all very well-branched, sturdy plants that bulk up quickly, do not require vernalization to bloom, and are loaded with buds for a vibrant show of color.
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.
The plants we ship; In early spring when echinacea ships they often appear small but will grow quickly as they are just waking up from being dormant. They will flower in the first season if planted in early summer.
Echinacea plants may not ship till late May.
