Re: Sunset Echinacea
That is a beauty! I love the blue contrast you have there.
I managed to kill mine
I guess the non stop heat and humidity and no rain in August was too much for it and it succombed to powdery mildew
It is one I will definitely replace next year though...

Great combo! 
I've been drooling over the new echinacea colors all summer. Maybe next year I'll get a few.

If you want an orange I would recommend Tiki Torch from Terra Nova...but Sunset has done very nice for me. I have lost of 2 my echinaceas to Aster's yellow this summer.
