Yellow Coneflower Echinacea Paradoxa

Echinacea paradoxa aka Bush’s Coneflower or Ozark coneflower is a rare native from the Ozarks in Missouri and Arkansas, but it is hardy to zone 4 and does well in the midwest. Unlike most of our natives it is yellow, which is the paradox. The plant gets about 3 feet tall and blooms from June through August. It does well in medium to dry soils and in sun to part shade. Bees and butterflies love this plant and deer do not. It even has a nice fragrance. Echinacea species can be cross pollinated and the unusual colors hybrids on the market often have this plant in their background.

These are two year old seedlings. You will get three of them for this price.

Daylily Sonic Duck

By Gossard 2006

Sonic Duck is a very tall (39 inch) dormant, tetraploid that has strong scapes to hold up the 8.5 inch, fragrant, pale yellow flowers.  An early mid-season rebloomer it is classified as unusual form with blossoms that are crispate and cascading. It has a bright red eye zone and a wide green throat. On the petals the eye zone is wide and cut by the yellow mid rib, but on the sepals it is a fine line giving the flowers an interesting star like appearance. 4 to 5 way branching with 22 to 38 buds means that this one really puts on a show. It is aptly named as the color is exactly that of a baby duck. Another bonus is foliage that always looks nice. This plant assumes a polymerous form more often than other plants (at least for me), meaning that may have extra sepals of petals.

By C. Hanson – 2000

Notify Ground Crew is the tallest daylily in my garden at 72 inches tall. Even at this height and loaded with blooms the stems are strong and rarely flop. It is a dormant, tetraploid that is fragrant and nocturnal. The 5 inch yellow flowers bloom mid-season and it is fertile. It is a fast grower and is impressive with it’s super tall well branched scapes once it is well established.

Daylily Atlanta Lamplighter

This one was registered with a height of 28 inches and a bloom of 5 inches; but for me I think it is both taller and bigger. It is a mid-season blooming, dormant tetraploid that is light yellow, edged with gold and a green throat. This Daylily is great for a moon garden as it practically glows in the dark.

Sedum Rupestre – Angelina

Sedum Angelina is a drought tolerant, succulent ground cover which is actually from the genus Petrosedum. The chartreuse leaves stay under 6 inches and are evergreen, providing winter interest in areas without snow cover. These do not flower like other sedum and are very tough and hardy here in zone 4. They are not bothered by pests or disease and if you get too much they are easy to remove. Nice in pots too as they will cascade.

These will arrive bare root. You will get a nice bunch of them. As with most sedums they are very easy to propagate. At least some of the ones that you receive will have roots, plant those but also plant any small or long pieces and they will grow. You need to water then until they are established but after that no supplemental care is needed unless you live in the desert.
