Echinacea ‘Meteor Yellow’

Big double yellow flowers on compact plants.

Lovely double lemon yellow anemone-type flowers on an upright compact habit. Great branching produces multiple stems of bloom. Multiple crowns means bigger and fuller plants for years to come. These are the perfect plants for the middle of the border and the strong stems mean no staking will be needed. Great vigour and bloom power. Echinacea in coastal BC should be planted in hot, dry, sunny spots with thin, average to poor soils for best overwintering.
