Echinacea x 'Moab Sunset' ~ Moab Sunset Coneflower toxic ‘Perpendens’Moab Sunset Echinacea is a compact native perennial with strong upright stems that do not need staking and bright green foliage. The fully double fragrant flowers have drooping bright red orange petals with pom pom like center cones and bloom from mid summer into fall. Thrives in full sun and well drained soils. The double flowers may attract less butterflies and bees, but spent stems will stay erect and attract birds if not removed. Drought tolerant.
