    Gorjus color. :-) I love the rich vibrant colors of both echies & gerberas. So much WOW power.

    Lovely new color, and what’s even better is that it will not cause sterility or other problems if it crossbreeds with native Echinaceas.

    This variety of Echinacea was created by a very ethical company named TerraNova. TerraNova is cool compared to other plant patenting companies because TN has a no-GMO policy. They do use advanced biotech such as plant cloning, but are not producing genetically modified plants, according to their spokesman and plant breeder, Dan Heims. I definitely like this company and their new Echinacea introductions! :)
