Echinacea/Coneflower – Strawberry & Cream

Description

A downward skirt of creamy white petals is encircled with a belt of strawberry pink cinched tight to the cones. Dark button centers expand and mature to pink pom-poms. This delectable mix of cream and pink is a strawberry festival in your own backyard! Echinacea Strawberry and Cream® is an outstanding selection from the Cone-fections™ Series of double-flowered Coneflowers. Perfect for the mid border, it’s hard to imagine a sunny perennial border without Coneflowers. Butterflies love the flowers, birds love the seeds, and we love the long-lasting bouquets. Like all Coneflowers, Echinacea Strawberry and Cream makes an excellent cut flower.
Praised for their cheerful brightly colored flowers, coneflowers are a mainstay in today’s garden. Be sure to leave some spent blooms on the plants in the fall because their seeds provide winter food for finches and other birds. The dried seed heads also provide architectural interest in the winter. Requires very little fertilizing.
