Artisan™ Collection Yellow Ombre Echinacea

Artisan™ Collection Yellow Ombre is an upright Echinacea hybrid with golden-yellow flowers and lighter mid-green foliage. PanAmerican Seed describes it as highly branched and uniform, with the first-year flowering and consistent structure of the Artisan collection. [Breeder profile](https://www.panamseed.com/Products/024108626049495/echinacea-artisan-collection-yellow-ombre/) ## Garden placement The listed mature size is 24–34 inches tall by 10–25 inches wide, and the breeder gives hardiness as USDA zones 4a–10b. Yellow Ombre flowers from late spring into summer and autumn and is listed for sun exposure. The breeder notes this selection is about 2–4 inches taller than the other Artisan colors, with a small percentage growing 6–8 inches taller. ## Seasonal display This seed-raised F1 selection shares the collection’s uniform flowering and full, highly branched structure. Its intense golden-yellow flowers and lighter green foliage distinguish it from Red Ombre and Soft Orange; PanAmerican Seed includes Yellow Ombre in its Bee-Yond pollinator program.

Removing faded flowers can keep the display tidy, while leaving some seed heads provides food for birds; the Chicago Botanic Garden notes this tradeoff for coneflowers.
