Best Yellow Double Coneflower
Vigorous flowering for months! A cheerful golden-yellow skirt of downward petals surrounds green button centers that transform to large golden poufs with a center dot of green. A summer filled with endless bouquets will leave no question as to why it is named Cara Mia™ - my beloved in Italian. With its abundant long-blooming fragrant flowers on tall straight stems, it is sure to become a cherished variety. It’s hard to imagine a sunny perennial border without Coneflowers. Butterflies love the flowers, birds love the seeds and we love the long-lasting bouquets. Like all Coneflowers, Echinacea Cara Mia™ Yellow makes an excellent cut flower.

Echinacea Plant Care

Easy to grow, prolific bloomer. Deadheading will prevent seeding, but birds are crazy about the seeds, and the seedheads are attractive in the winter, especially in the snow. If removing them, leave the foliage at the base of the plant to overwinter. May be slow to emerge in the spring. These generally don't need to be divided, but can be divided in early spring or early fall.
