Description:
Long blooming, single flowers of tangerine orange cover the Julia Coneflower all season long. These fragrant blooms make for a great cut flower. Deadheading will encourage more flower production for a longer bloom season. Towards the end of its bloom season, allow spent blooms to remain on the plant, as the seeds will become a winter food source for song birds. The upright, compact habit of this coneflower helps to maintain a tidy perennial garden bed. This coneflower is named after an orange butterfly, Julia, which is found in the southern United States. This coneflower is a nativar.
