Orange Echinacea

A more unusual colour Echinacea is this orange variety, whose name I have forgotten. It grows in a border in our front garden in close proximity to the orange Rose which I blipped last Saturday. I do lose Echinaceas quite regularly in our heavy clay soil, but worth replacing as they are such wonderful garden plants, and the bees love them!

Much of the early brightness of our front garden has passed this time of year , so these positively sing out against the surrounding green foliage.
