Re: Echinacea 'Doubledecker'

Hi Gail, 

   It's definitely a coneflower (Echinacea).  The leaves are very 
   Echinacea purpurea like (although slightly more narrow like 
   Echinacea pallida).  

   The ones that you see in the photo behind it are actually a lilac --
   Syringa meyeri 'Palibin'.

   It looks like the other flowers are opening the same way now as 
   well.

   Donna, I think Razzmatazz has very short 'petals' on top -- they almost
   look like modified stamens.  Could it be Echinacea 'Fancy Frills'
   instead?  I'll have to wait and see if the stamens develop on mine
   or not.  

   I'm so excited!

Chris
