  Rich, golden petals with hints of orange surround the rusty coloured centre of these large, rose scented blooms. Attractive to bees and butterflies, ideal for cutting, long flowering and trouble free - coneflowers are well worth including in the borders. The look particularly at home in cottage of prairie style planting schemes.
  
  
• Garden care: Lift and divide congested colonies in autumn or spring. Dead-heading will encourage more flowers to form, but if left uncut they will set seed, which will help keep the birds fed into the winter. They will benefit from a spring or autumn mulch with well-rotted compost.
