Like an alternative to a sunflower. Big and bold and beautiful.

A very pretty shade of pink, not what one expects in a coneflower.

I would like to plant some cone flowers in the garden. Perhaps next year. I need to decide where to place them. Decisions. Decisions. Usually, I only see purple cone flowers so your orange variety is quite different. Nice job on the photograph.
