Echinacea 'Sunrise' PPAF
Common Name: Sunrise Coneflower, Hybrid Coneflower
Echinacea ‘Sunrise’ — commonly called Sunrise Coneflower — is a long-blooming perennial valued for its soft buttery-yellow flowers with a light, sweet fragrance and prominent green to golden cones that appear from early summer into fall. Dark green, slightly coarse foliage forms a sturdy clump and remains attractive through the season, sometimes developing muted tones in fall. Its upright, well-branched habit and soft, glowing color make it an excellent choice for borders and pollinator plantings.
