Echinacea x 'Balsomador' PP #26,639 ~ Sombrero® Adobe Orange Improved Coneflower Size:1 GALLON Photos by Jonathan BillingerAdobe Orange Improved Echinacea is a compact freely branching native perennial with strong upright stems that do not need staking and aromatic dark green foliage. Heavy blooms of fragrant bright orange flowers with overlapping petals and large raised cones begin in late spring and all through summer. Thrives in full sun and well drained soils. The flowers attract butterflies and bees, and spent stems will stay erect and attract birds if not removed.
