Gardening: Beautiful flowers show on hottest days By Molly DaySome of the hybrids to look for include:
Echinacea Bravado - rose-red flowers, Finale White - single cream white flowers with green-brown central disks, Leuchtstern Bright Star - purple-red flowers, Magnus - dark orange central disks and deep purple flowers, Robers Bloom - dark brown centers and mauve-crimson flowers, White Lustre - orange centers and cream flowers and White Swan - white flowers up to 5 inches across with orange centers. Coconut Lime - white and pale green - a new introduction last year that grows to 2-feet tall when established. Echinacea Pink Double Delight - frilly pink center and is circled by 6 oval pink petals. Razzmatazz is a similar color and larger. Some of the new cultivars are being called Meadowbrite. For example, Mango Meadowbrite and Orange meadowbrite. Whether you prefer a mass of native coneflowers or a bed of assorted hybrid colors, shapes and sizes, there are several carefree choices.
