Echinacea Sombrero Series Summer Solstice

Echinacea (Coneflower) ek-in-AY-shah

Vigorous summer-flowering perennial.  Prefers well-drained soil. Good in borders and natural plantings. Daisy flowers have slightly reflexed ray petals and raised central discs. Some spent blooms should be left on the plants in fall because their seeds provide winter food for finches and other birds.
