ECHINACEA PURPUREA
Hybrid Seed from 'Big Sky Sunrise' Coneflower
Above photo is from commercial plants I purchased and planted in late spring 2007. All the photos I have seen, none of them have quilled petals like this, and this particular supplier is usually reliable. So I am of the opinion that these are true-to-name 'Big Sky Sunrise' plants.
Please keep in mind that seed sown plants DO NOT produce true 'Big Sky Sunrise' plants. But I'm hoping for some real nice seedlings. The only other echinacea growin near was 'Big Sky Harvest Moon', an orange color, so hopefully flowers would either be yellow or yellow-orange.
Also, I only have 5 or 6 packets available, so please, only one packet per customer.
