Plant Features

The Big Sky™ Sundown Echinacea Plant is one of the newer selections, just released in 2006! This fragrant Coneflower has blooms up to 6-inches wide, proudly showing off its warm-colored, russet-orange petals and quite prominent deep brownish-orange cone, just a couple of the colors of a beautiful Wyoming sunset. The fragrance has been compared to roses, though a bit lighter. This heat tolerant plant attracts butterflies and bees!
