Echinacea plant named ‘CBG Cone3’

Abstract

The new cultivar originated as a branch mutation of the ‘Art's Pride’ cultivar (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 15,090) of unknown causation. Attractive blossoms are formed having yellow-orange ray and disc florets which differ substantially in coloration from those of the ‘Art's Pride’ cultivar. Also, the blossoms display a blossom fragrance that is more intense than that of the ‘Art's Pride’ cultivar. Dark green semi-glossy foliage is formed that contrasts nicely with the blossom coloration. The new cultivar is capable of imparting distinctive ornamentation to the landscape.
