Description: A herbaceous Perennial with a clump-forming and upright habit. Mid to dark green leaves are lanceolate to linear in shape. Daisy-like flowerheads have rich orange petals that deepen to red with age. Individual flowers are comprised of an outer ring of reflexed, petal-like, ray florets surrounding a dense cluster of shorter ray florets with pronounced notching at the tips. A relatively discreet brown cone at the centre of the Bloom can eventually be seen as the flower ages. The flowerheads are held singly atop upright stems and are produced from midsummer into early autumn. The Blooms are lightly scented and very attractive to pollinating insects. Good for use as cut flowers.

The genus name Echinacea is based on the Greek word 'Echinos' for hedgehog, a reference to the prickly centre of the flower.
