Echinacea 'Sunset' |
Echinacea 'Sunrise' and 'Sunset' are two of the showiest perennials we have ever seen. Bred by IT Saul in U.S., this is one of a series of amazing new coneflowers. With huge flowers and great colours, 'Sunset' has orange tones with roses and hints of blue undertone, wonderful reflexed petals and a huge 'cone.' 'Sunrise' is just a big sassy bright yellow. Both are easy to grow and will overwinter will in Ontario gardens. These plants will make a nice indoor cut flower as well as a great border plant. We like to plant them in groups of at least 5 plants - pick odd numbers to avoid planting in straight lines or squares. Typically about 50 cm tall in the garden - plant in full sun.
