Perennial Combo for Sunny Site Anchored by Yucca

This sun worshiping trio of plants look good in the garden for months on end. The overall scene is anchored year-round by the evergreen Yucca 'Bright Edge' but in summer, the scene is enlivened by the long blooming Sundown coneflower, selected for its warm tones which complement the rich dark foliage of Purple Emperor stonecrop. This plant combo is attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds.
