Do you grow the new Echinaceas?

**"* R* <s*@hotmail.com>**

Anybody growing newer coneflower cultivars out there? Working on a magazine 
piece and would love to find 2 or 3 gardeners with firsthand experience for 
a few short quotes about how you like the plants, what you combine them 
with, and what your regional growing conditions are.

If you have grown the new warmer-colored coneflower cvs---the Itsaul Big Sky 
series ('Sundown', 'Twilight', 'Harvest Moon', etc) or the Chicago Botanic 
Gdn introductions ('Art's Pride'/'Orange Meadowbrite' etc)---or if you have 
grown any of the E. purpurea cvs with a different slant, such as 
'Doubledecker', I'd love to hear from you; just drop an email to me at 
sallyroth16@hotmail.com and I'll get in touch with specifics.

Don't worry, no lengthy intervew; just a few brief questions, maybe 10, 15 
minutes of your time. Unless we get to talking.... Okay, okay, I promise 
I'll be good, and not get off on a tangent. Well, I'll try not to, anyhow.

No $ involved, just a possible mention followed by fame and glory leading to 
adulation in your hometown and then your own reality TV show LOL. I can see 
it now---the marquee, the limo, the paparazzi (how *do* you spell that), 
Brad and Angelina, Bill and Melissa, and of course Lindsay Lohan, all 
saying, Oh yes, we're old friends. Because, hey, you're the next hot thing. 
Wait, what was that about digressing?? Okay, get the hook....

Seriously, please get in touch if you love or hate the new coneflowers, or 
even if you find them ho-hum.

Thanks a million,
Sally
