Echinacea x 'Hot Papaya' ~ Hot Papaya Echinacea, Coneflower Size:1 GALLON 6PK (2) Peter coxheadHot Papaya Echinacea is a freely branching native perennial with strong upright stems that do not need staking and bright green foliage. The fully double fragrant flowers have drooping orange red petals with pom pom like center cones and bloom from 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.
