Vine-plant arrived in plastic-free packaging, with 4-5 large leaves. Planted upon arrival, it seems to be taking well as it has already grown! It's a beautiful flower, I already have some in my garden for several years, they have withstood the 35°C (95°F) heat and drought from last year without any issues and without watering, their colour is really nice and unique.

Surprising for its colour, this spreading Echinacea has large flowers with short petals in apple green.

Ideal plants for a mixed border. They blend well with all kinds of perennials, grasses or bulbs such as dahlias.

Robust and trouble-free. Vigorous stems. They also make excellent cut flowers.
