Description
Artisan Yellow Ombre Echinacea is a freely branching native perennial with a uniform upright habit and deep green foliage. The large fragrant flowers open a saturated golden yellow that softens as they mature and bloom from summer until frost. Thrives in full sun and well-drained soils. The flowers attract butterflies and bees, and spent stems will stay erect and attract birds if not removed. Drought tolerant.
