##Paranoia## **Flower:** Yellow
**Height:** 10 to 12 inches
**Likes:** Full sun, well-drained soil
**Uses:** Edging plant, container
**Hardiness:** Zone 6, maybe 5 A cross between the yellow *Echinacea paradoxa* and *E. purpurea*, tidy little 'Paranoia' has curved lemony yellow petals around an orange-brown cone. It's sterile, so won't produce seeds but will bloom for a long time. **More stunning shorties to choose from:** Check out the pink 'Lilliput' and 'Kim's Knee High'.
