Notes
'Tiki Torch' coneflower (Echinacea 'Tiki Torch') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, pollinator gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist soil of most types. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the orange blooms. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. Birds come for the seeds, so leave some flower heads standing.
Pairs well with Nodding onion, Sedge, and Virginia rose.
