Description
Common Name: Coneflower ‘Sombrero Flamenco Orange‘, Sombrero Flamenco Orange echinacea, Sombrero Flamenco Orange ppaf
Very large flowers with orange-red petals around an orange-brown cone, from the Sombrero series. Very hardy, drought-tolerant and adaptable to poor soils. This plant is compact with a well-branched, strong and bushy habit. Ideal for sunny borders and growing in mixed containers.
Praised for their cheerful brightly coloured 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.
Echinacea plants may not ship until late May.
