'Frankly Scarlet' Coneflower is a stunning variety that dazzles with its 4-inch, bright scarlet-orange flowers, offering a vibrant burst of color in your garden. The large, fragrant blooms are beautifully set against a backdrop of dark green foliage, creating a striking contrast. Known for its excellent branching, this coneflower maintains a full, bushy appearance throughout the growing season. As the flowers age, their bold red hue softens to coral-orange. A true pollinator magnet, it attracts bees and butterflies, while its seed heads, which linger into late fall and winter, provide a valuable food source for birds. 'Frankly Scarlet' is an excellent choice for adding color, wildlife support, and beauty to your landscape year-round.
