(Coneflower) Add SOMBRERO® 'Fuchsia Fandango' Echinacea to your coneflower collection! Deep fuchsia blooms appear on sturdy, dark green stems. These blooms appear midsummer and continue to provide season long color through late summer. This variety of echinacea is very prolific, and it keeps a compact, neat habit. Reaching a maximum height of 18-20 inches and maximum width of 22-24 inches, it grows in an upright habit. Hardy in zones 4b-9b, this echinacea can withstand colder zones and has a hardiness degree of -25 degrees Fahrenheit. SOMBRERO® 'Fuchsia Fandango' Echinacea is a great plant for your pollinator garden, as its vibrant blooms attract butterflies. Deer typically stay away from this echinacea making it deer resistant. It grows best in areas that receive full sun (6+ hours each day), and when planted in well-drained soil. It is recommended to deadhead the spent flowers to prolong its ability to flower. Plant in mass in the garden, as a focal point plant, or with other complimentary perennials.
