More Details
People will tell you that these newly bred echinaceas are not perennial. Well that's not what we've found in our trials. These 3 have come back in the cutting garden now for 5 years. They make superb garden plants (without too much crowding), and are amongst my favourite perennials for picking, with a cut-and-come-again nature and excellent vase life.
This collection contains 1 plant each of:- Echinacea x hybrida 'Eccentric'
- Echincea x hybrida 'Marmalade'
- Echinacea x hybrida 'Irresistible'

Sprinkle mycorrhizal fungi (Rootgrow) into the base of the planting hole and water well. |
