Description

(Coneflower) Echinacea SUPREME™ 'Cantaloupe' is just as delicious as its name. This delightful semi-double Coneflower resembles a gerbera daisy in the early stages. As SUPREME™ 'Cantaloupe' begins to open, a dark brown eye is surrounded by the ripe cantaloupe orange petals. As the flower matures, the pom pom center turns orange surrounded by a flurry of petals. Standing 26-29 inches tall, the upright habit is the perfect size for gardens and landscapes. The long-lasting flowers of Echinacea SUPREME™ 'Cantaloupe' attract butterflies and hummingbirds and are great in cut flower arrangements! Try planting in masses for a bold color impact in your garden.
