    This is one of my favorite Echinaceas. It's such a cheerful, "stop you in your tracks," BRIGHT bloom. Unfortunately, it's one of those short-lived perennials. It only lasted 3 years in my garden. But given the chance, I'd buy this one again, because it's a really good performer that makes me smile every time I look at it.
