Echinacea Supreme ‘Elegance’

Echinacea 'Supreme Elegance' has rich rose-red double coneflowers with fragrance and a compact habit.

Stately and elegant, Supreme ‘Elegance’ was the inspiration for the Supreme Series. A lovely, deep rose-red center that enriches as the flower ages. The ray petals are star-like and are a bright mauve pink that also deepen in colour. Echinacea in coastal BC should be planted in hot, dry, sunny spots with thin, average to poor soils for best overwintering.
