Product Description

Our Plant bears large, double blossoms the most amazing shade of pastel, blushing pink, with a richer-colored pink top flower. Looking oh-so-Victorian, you can just picture these heat resistant Coneflowers in the flowering gardens of a massive estate! The well-branched, compact growth habit means that you can harvest a full bouquet of these elegant blossoms from one single plant! Known to attract butterflies!

Echinacea 'Secret Romance' is a showy perennial boasting a profusion of large double flowers with prominent warm pink pompoms surrounded by lighter pink ray petals. Blooming from midsummer until frost, this mid-size coneflower has a strong upright habit with well branched stems. It is an eye-catching addition to perennial borders, prairies or cottage gardens. Can be used in fresh cut or dried arrangements.

• Grows up to 18-30 in. tall (45-75 cm) and 28 in. wide (70 cm).
• Thrives in full sun in average, dry to medium moisture, well drained soils.  Tolerant of drought, heat and humidity. 
• Perfect choice for beds and borders, prairies and meadows, wildflower gardens or cottage gardens.  Excellent as cut flowers. 
• No serious pest or disease issues.  The double flowers may not be as attractive to butterflies and birds as single flowers.  Deer resistant. 
• Remove spent flowers and cut back the stems to encourage further blooms.  Deadheading will help them grow and thrive. 
• Propagate by division in spring or fall or by root cuttings from late fall to early winter. 

Echinacea, commonly called Coneflower, has been cultivated as a hardy and showy perennial since the 1700s, both in North America and Europe.  Truly an American plant, native to the central and eastern part of the country, it was used by the early Native Americans to cure wounds and infections.  A great prairie flower, its bright and large blossoms made a successful transition to the backyard.  Traditionally purple, with ray flowers that droop downward off the central cone, Coneflowers today enjoy a rich variety of colors and flower shapes with ray florets held horizontal, single or even doubled, giving them the look of Chrysanthemum.  Easily grown from seed, they thrive on neglect.

How To Grow

1. Choose a spot with Full or Partial Sun.
2. Prepare well draining soil.
3. Space them apart according to variety size.

DESCRIPTION

Looking like a plucked daisy, this Rudbeckia sports long, thin green sepals and a giant, pointy deep purple to black cone (the size and shape of a large strawberry)! Wonderfully attention-getting in the garden, 'Green Wizard' is also welcome as an Everlasting, where its ultra-strong stems support these stylish cones for months on end, adding interesting texture and tall vertical effect to bouquets, centerpieces, and decorations of all types.

Unlike anything you've seen before!

Lure friends and neighbours (as well as butterflies) to your midsummer landscape with this unique specimen. With a prominent black cone, yellow rim and long green sepals at the bottom, it sports a one-of- a-kind form in a stunningly dramatic hue. Adds wintertime interest as well.

(Rudbeckia occidentalis) “Petal-less” might be a tough selling point for a flower cultivar, but this unique rudbeckia shines in garden borders and as bouquet filler. In place of the more typical ray flowers, this elongated coneflower has a collar of upswept green petal-like sepals. Native to moist meadows and stream beds of the mountain west, this 3-4’ rudbeckia prefers ample moisture. The tiny flowers forming the cone were almost exclusively pollinated by beautiful metallic green sweat bees at our farm. A unique addition to any bouquet.

Black-eyed Susans (Rudbeckia hirta) are native to North America and one of the most popular wildflowers grown. They tend to blanket open fields, often surprising the passerby with their golden-yellow beauty.
Rudbeckia hirta, commonly called black-eyed Susan, is a North American flowering plant in the sunflower family, native to Eastern and Central North America and naturalized in the Western part of the continent as well as in China.
Scientific name: Rudbeckia hirta
Order: Asterales
Family: Asteraceae
Higher classification: Coneflowers

Members of the sunflower family, the “black eye” is named for the dark, brown-purple centers of its daisy-like flower heads. The plants can grow to over 3 feet tall, with leaves of 6 inches, stalks over 8 inches long and flower diameter of 2 to 3 inches.
Butterflies, bees, and a variety of insects are attracted to the flowers for the nectar. As they drink the nectar, they move pollen from one plant to another, causing it to grow fruits and seeds that can move about easily with the wind.
These plants bloom from June to October. Note that they can be territorial in that they tend to squash out other flowers growing near them.
Black-eyed Susans are good for cut flowers; they also work well for borders or in containers.
Planting:
• Plant black-eyed Susans when the soil temperature has reached 70°F for best seed germination. In many parts of North America, the planting period is March to May. The flower will flower June to September. Germination takes 7 to 30 days.
• Plant seeds in moist, well-drained soil.
• These hearty flowers really enjoy the Sun. They prefer full sun, though they’ll grow in partial sun.
• Sow by seed in loosely covered soil.
• It’s best if soil is fertile (not poor) though they can tolerate tough conditions.
• Black-eyed Susans generally grow between 1 and 3 feet tall (though they can grow taller) and can spread between 12 to 18 inches, so plant seeds closer to prevent lots of spreading or plant further apart to make a nice border.

Care:
• Check your plants regularly to see if they need watering. Make sure they don’t dry out.
• Divide perennial types every 3 to 4 years to ensure healthy plants and to prevent excessive spreading.
• Be sure to remove faded/dead flowers to prolong blooming.
• You can cut back black-eyed Susans after they flower and a second, smaller bloom may occur in late fall.

Most Rudbeckia varieties come in shades of yellow or orange, with a dark center seed head, but the flower heads are actually quite varied. There are Rudbeckia with petals in russet, bronze, and mahogany tones.Mar 17, 2019
Flower Color: Yellow, orange, russet, bronze, ...
Common Names: Black-eyed Susan, brown-e...
Black-Eyed Susan grows perfectly in gardens, in borders and in flower beds, and it is a great summer time bloomer. Butterflies of many species are attracted to its bright blooms. It grows in all regions of North America in any soil from sand to clay, but it must have full sun. Black-eyed Susan care includes deadheading to prolong the bloom season, but the plants will re-seed themselves readily if you leave a few blooms to go to seed.

Sow Black-Eyed Susan wildflower seeds outdoors any time in the late fall or as early in the spring as the ground can be cultivated. Prepare soil by loosening the top 1 - 2 inches and removing any weeds. Sow the Rudbeckia Hirta seeds into the loosened soil and rake in. Walk over the area to gently press the wildflower seeds into the soil. Keep the Black Eyed Susan seeds moist until germination. Rudbeckia plants transplant well and should be spaced 12 - 18 inches apart. The Black Eyed Susan plant forms a clump that will reach 12 inches in width. Considered a biennial, it will not bloom much the first year the flower seeds are sown. The following year will bring many more blooms. The seed is small, but it is considered to be very easy to grow. Rudbeckia Hirta seeds are a staple of any good wildflower seed mixture and the golden yellow blooms are a major color-maker in any wild flower garden.

The bronze-purple foliage of this native cultivar will satisfy your craving for rich dark foliage. Its towering height adds elegant architectural interest to the back of any shady border. Fragrant mauve-pink bottlebrush 5' spikes lighten to white. Dramatic contrast among surrounding greenery! Cimicifuga Chocoholic provides a lacy, airy backdrop for its late summer spires of fragrant flowers. Prefers a consistently moist site for best habit. Good in groups or as a specimen. Best color in light shade. This perennial is native to the edges of woodlands in eastern North America.

First off, you'll love this Cimicifuga for its dark, rich foliage. Such an unusual color is sure to stick out amid the green leaves you've got plenty of in the mixed border. Then, in late summer, when all the other showy garden perennials are starting to wind down, raspberry–colored buds will burst into fluffy blush plumes. With the plumes comes a surprising, whimsy perfume that's kind of like grape soda. The plumes and the foliage carry enough of those reddish tones to complement each other, while the dark and light contrast makes this plant stand out. It prefers the shade—and most sleepy shade gardens could use the dash of excitement Pink Spike supplies. You'll also love it for its low maintenance. It's easy to grow, even in acidic, clay and loamy soils, and deer rarely bother it. Cimicifuga ramosa 'Pink Spike'
