gemini,
I have not tried this echinacea but I have bought new echinacea introductions from White Flower Farm (For Big Bucks) and when they arrived I was so shocked that they had basically shipped me a seedling that I immediately called them and let them know that this plant did not even constitute as an appetiser for my slug colony. I will admit they did refund my purchase but after that as well as other WFF experiences I would be very cautious about ordering any new intro from them. kt

I thank you for that very valuable information. I really appreciate the input. Thank You

let them know that this plant did not even constitute as an appetiser for my slug colony

*giggles* Did you really say that?

greening,
You may not have noticed this before but I have a a severe malady called wise a$$ itis. It causes me to desperately seek attention through humor/sarcasm. This malady is at its worst when the recipient either chooses to ignore me or simply doesn't understand my style of humor...then I must admit is when it gets ugly as I tend to raise my voice (because surely the reason the recipient isn't laughing uncontrollably is not because I wasn't brilliantly funny)or if scream/talking doesn't work than simply I must repeat my self. Only when there is an awkward cloud of silence will I slink away from my victim. To answer your question yes of course I said that!! kt

In my opinion tiki torch is the best coneflower ever! It has the most beautiful blooms. It is perfect. It is much better than the Big Sky coneflowers!
