Hey, not much on flowers here, but can anyone tell me what some inexpensive seeds for good colorful decorative perennial flowers would be for zone 6?

I have read some, and Purple Coneflowers, Aster, Hydrangea are candidates. A mixed package may be better.

Coneflowers

Aster

Hydrangea

Canterbury Bells, and the green variant((Irish Bells?). There are red coneflowers, now. Rudbeckia is nice. Shasta Daisies....

P.S. I don’t think Hydrangea can be grown from seed. It’s a shrub.
