Dwarf Rudbeckia, the Missouri Orange Coneflower produces 2" wide deep golden yellow to near orange dark-eyed daisies in summer on 12-16" high stems from a low rosette of narrow rich green foliage. An excellent choice for the front of a sunny perennial border.This miniature Coneflower is native to only a few counties in LA, TX, OK, IL, and is more common in MO and AR.
