Echinacea Fresco™ 'Apricot'

Warm sunset colors of orange, yellow, pink, and violet animate the streaked, layered, notched petals of Echinacea Fresco™ 'Apricot,' a standout Coneflower with Zinnia-like blossoms that appear on tall, slender plants with grayish-green foliage. The gorgeous blooms are largely colorfast, and they add a vibrant accent to sunny borders and cutting gardens from late spring to fall. PPAF

Echinacea, a North American genus in the Daisy family, has big, bright flowers that appear from late June until frost. Coneflowers thrive in average soils or hot, dry conditions and shrug off cold. Blooms last well, cut or dried, and the seeds in the large cone at the heart of the flower head provide nourishment for birds. Coneflowers are equally at home in formal borders or cottage gardens. Deer resistant.
