    I bought seeds from Park's Seeds back in July and sowed them right away. I ended up with 8 plants. Now in October they are nice 2" x 2" plants with several leaves. I planted them this year, so I'm sure to have blooms next spring on well-established plants. I love coneflowers and had to have these unique colored ones.

dnrevel On July 15, 2022 Bloomed
Full of buds. It's taken a few years to get this plant to full size, but so worth it. Less vigorous than other Echinaceas, noted.
