Does anyone know of a source for this plant? I read that the blooms start out yellow and turn pink. The blooms look huge! Here are some links with photos and more info.

Echinacea "Maxima"
Interesting that the color changes on this one, I think I've heard of it, but I haven't seen a source.
I don't want to hijack the thread but thought that I could add one in also. Looking for Hot Lava. I know that there is a source listed on DG but the one time that I ordered from them, I got microscopically small plugs for 20-25 bucks and 2 out of 4 were DOA, so I'm a little scared with that source. Would rather try a different one that has a little more of a following.
I ordered Hot Lava in the Co-op here. It was $4.50 for plug-sized plants! I can't wait till it comes in!
Oh, rub it in, LOL I JUST missed that co-op!
Don't see a US source for Echie Maxima. It seems to be something available only in Europe right now. I ordered a couple of Hot Lavas in the coop also. Only place I see Hot Lava currently available is through Green Thumbs Galore.
Ooooh, thanks so much, I didn't know Green Thumbs had Hot Lava. Going to check it out right now!
OK, I think I'm giving up for the night. Wow, it must be getting really late because I saw that they had lots of new echinacea "just in" at Green Thumbs but for the life of me couldn't figure out how to get to them and add them to the cart! Another day, Hot Lava!
