Description
The coneflower "Hot Papaya" is a beautiful flower with an unusual crown of petals on top. We had them for only one season, but they were truly a delight. This lovely lady seemed to be taking a bow, which is where the title comes from. From Spring Hill Nurseries:
"This spicy, red-orange bloom is accented by a showy, hot papaya red halo in the pompon - hence the name! This first ever orange red double coneflower stays true to color and won't fade."
I hope to plant more of them this simmer because they are such a joy!
Processed in Photoshop with Topaz Studio using several settings, including a layer of Topaz Impression.
