Feet are represented by a single quote and inches by a double quote. This is the average expected mature height by width in feet or inches. Leave late summer and fall flowers to develop seedheads for Finches and other songbirds. May flower from late-spring to fall once mature but you can expect most plants to flower the first growing season under average or better conditions.

These clump forming perennials will perform well in well drained, normal to clay type soils with average nutrient levels and good drainage in full to mostly sunny sites. These upward facing 'daisies' are actually a composite flower and are composed of a multitude of ray flowers (the wide normally colorful 'petals' of a 'daisy') and are centered by a 'cone' composed of a multitude of spirally arranged disk flowers. This is one of the few plants that can compete for the attention that butterflies pay to the Porterweeds and Lantana.

Provide a full to mostly sunny site in an average moist, well-drained, fertile, preferably mineral soil for optimum vigor and flowering. Periodic deadheading will keep the plants looking clean and may help promote continuous flowering. Leave seedheads for fall and winter songbirds to enjoy. These Coneflowers are produced with a range of ray colors from creamy yellow, through banana yellow, and into mango and pumpkin. Mellow Yellows Coneflower, a seed grown selection of Echinacea purpurea developed by Jelitto® Seed that has taken 20 years to develop, was selected for its better and more consistent branching habit, larger deeper colored flowers and scapes, and improved disease resistance. Coneflowers are clump forming perennials whose often fragrant flowers are adored by butterflies, bees, and other pollinators that can be enjoyed as part of the sunny garden garden and landscape as well as container specimens.
