Coneflower - Firebird
Coneflower - Firebird Echinacea Firebird (Coneflower), Echinacea 'Firebird', displays stunning red-orange petals that fall below the beautiful dark cones. These beautiful flocks of colored flowers grow on sturdy stems. Firebird produces long lasting flowers that attract butterflies and hummingbirds; makes gorgeous flower arrangements too! 'Firebird' provides a season-long colorful display of daisy-like flowers and will bring a brilliant display of brilliant red orange colors to a sunny location. Divide clumps when they become overcrowded (about every 4 years). 'Firebird' usually reblooms without deadheading, but if spent flowers are removed, this procedure will encourage continued beautiful blooms and improves general appearance. Coneflowers are used as accent plants or in mixed borders, open woodlands, and mass plantings. This plant is deer resistant. If you leave some spent blooms on the plants in fall their seeds provide winter food for birds. You can enjoy the dried seed heads as well, because they will provide architectural interest in the winter. The flaming red-orange colors of 'Firebird' just “pops” wherever panted! * Fragrant * Long lasting blooms * Food for wildlife
