Orange coneflower, also known as shining black-eyed susan, is a beautiful perennial native to the eastern United States. Its bright tangerine-orange blooms are long lasting with bees and butterflies enjoying them as well. The leaves are larger and leathery making them unpalatable to deer and rabbits. Orange coneflower spreads through well-behaved rhizomes and can be split when the size you desire is attained.
