From the Walters Gardens hybridizing program comes a collection that was a long time in the making and will certainly "catch your eye!" These single flowering varieties come in bold colors, better basal branching compared to older genetics, and are fairly compact. These pollinator friendly perennials are a must-have addition to your sun garden!
Praised for their cheerful brightly colored flowers, coneflowers are a mainstay in today's garden. Be sure to leave some spent blooms on the plants in the fall because their seeds provide winter food for finches and other birds. The dried seed heads also provide architectural interest in the winter.
