Echinacea Doublescoop ‘Cranberry’

Echinacea Doublescoop 'Cranberry' is a coneflower with cranberry red blooms on big double pompoms.

Echinacea Doublescoop ‘Cranberry’ offers one of the rarest colours in the hybrid coneflowers: a gorgeous cranberry red, in this case on stunning, double pom poms blooms that are nicely fragrant on sturdy, well-branched, upright plants that are a mainstay in the sunny summer border, in containers, and as long lasting cut flowers in the vase. The Doublescoop Series are a group of short coneflowers all less than two feet high with fantastic double flowers. Echinacea in coastal BC should be planted in hot, dry, sunny spots with thin, average to poor soils for best overwintering.
