Great for patio containers and crowded gardens.
Part of the Sombrero® series of compact, cold-hardy, floriferous Echinacea, Flamenco Orange has all the merits of its family. If you live in a cold-winter climate, you will find that it stands up to severe storms and falling temperatures better than most others. The flowers are numerous and keep coming over a longer season. And this plant is no more than 2 feet high.
Flamenco Orange is subtly fragrant and lovely in the vase. The blooms last a good long time, but be sure to cut or deadhead them as they pass, because that will stimulate the formation of new buds. This goes on for months.
Enjoy finding the perfect spot for this ultra-hardy, low-maintenance selection of our American native wildflower.
