Echinacea Sunseekers ‘Red’ is a hybrid coneflower that will stop you in your tracks with bold, single blooms of fire engine red, centred around a dark, fragrant cone. Part of the Sunseekers collection bred for exceptional vigour, masses of non-fading flowers and dense, compact growth of less than two feet tall and wide.
