notes
The semi-double coneflower, Rudbeckia Enchanted Nightfall, is notable for its flowers, which change colour as the plant matures. Starting with sepia tones, the petals take on a peachy yellow hue, set against a deep chocolate cone. A wonderful cut flower with real long lasting vase appeal, this is a great plant for the border or as a specimen in a container.

Insights
Enchanted Nightfall performs best when it receives at least 6 hours a day of sunlight. Flowering from late summer into autumn, this low maintenance plant fills the garden with warm colour and texture at a time when many flowering plants have finished blooming. It is tender so will require protection over winter.
