Coneflower

Fiesta Orange Coneflower produces vibrant orange blooms with slightly reflexed petals surrounding a prominent dark cone. The bright flowers are held on strong stems above a mound of green foliage, creating a warm splash of colour in summer gardens. Its compact habit and bold colouring make it a lively addition to borders, mass plantings, and pollinator gardens.

Growing and Maintenance Tips

Coneflowers grow best in full sun and well-drained soil and are tolerant of drought once established. However, they do not tolerate winter wet. They are easy to grow and require minimal maintenance. Removing faded blooms may extend flowering, while leaving seed heads in fall can provide food for birds.
