Description
16-18" tall x 18-24" wide. Named after a famous yellow butterfly, 'Cleopatra' Echinacea shares the same vibrant and cheerful yellow color. What a perfect fit for a nectar-rich pollinator plant! Like all echinacea, 'Cleopatra' is deer resistant and very tough, handling a variety of challenging conditions without complaint. A great choice for cutting gardens, the strong stems offer genuine lasting power in a vase, while the uncut blooms remain in good form for upwards of a month. Although echinacea (also called coneflower) is not terribly fussy about soil, it does need to be planted in full sun to produce a good volume of blooms.
