Orange Coneflower

Also known as Perennial Coneflower, Orange Black-Eyed Susan

Orange coneflowers brighten eastern North American meadows and open woodlands with long-lasting summer blooms featuring rich golden-yellow ray florets around a dark chocolate-brown central cone. Clump-forming perennials spread steadily via underground rhizomes to create dense drift-like colonies that anchor native prairies and rain gardens. In autumn, ripe seed heads become a vital winter food source for resident songbirds like goldfinches.
