The Sombrero® Adobe Lemon Yellow Coneflower’s bright blooms will add cheer to any garden. It has a tall central disk covered in bright yellow and a full, lovely skirt of vibrant pedals. Each plant fills with gorgeous blooms and grows 18” to 22” tall and up to 24” wide. The coneflower is related to the sunflower, and this golden beauty really shows the family resemblance.
The embodiment of sunshine, this coneflower fills with blooms and pairs well with oriental grasses or with an array of flowers. Its sunny color compliments both warm and cool colors, and it is a perfect cut flower for fresh arrangements. Once the flowers fade, the cones can be collected for a dried arrangement, or they can be left on the plant over winter to attract a variety of birds.
This United States native is a favorite of bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies, attracting them all summer and into the fall. It is easy to grow and very free flowering. Cutting the spent flowers will encourage even more growth throughout the summer. It is a very hardy plant that tolerates drought, humidity, and heat as well as sandy, rocky, or clay soils. It grows in zones 4-9 in full sun. It is resistant to deer, pests, and disease. When properly protected, these perennials will grow year after year, bringing vibrant, cheery color to the garden every summer.
