SunMagic® Vintage White Coneflower (Echinacea)

(Coneflower) Crisp white flowers give Echinacea SUNMAGIC® Vintage White a fresh presence in the summer garden. Large blooms feature bright white petals surrounding a prominent central cone. Excellent branching supports an abundance of flowers while maintaining a compact, tidy habit. Blooms begin around mid-June and continue into fall.

Echinacea SUNMAGIC® Vintage White grows 18-24 inches tall with a similar spread. It thrives in full sun and prefers soil with good drainage. Its compact size works well in perennial beds, borders, pollinator gardens, containers, and mass plantings. Strong stems hold the flowers above the green foliage throughout the blooming season.

Hardy in zones 4-9, this coneflower handles cold winters and warm summer conditions. Echinacea is native to North America, making it a natural fit for native-inspired and wildlife-friendly gardens. Deer tend to avoid coneflowers, giving gardeners another reason to use them in areas with browsing pressure.

Bees, bumblebees, and butterflies visit the flowers throughout summer and into fall. The high flower count gives pollinators plenty of blooms to explore during its long flowering season. After flowering, the distinctive cones remain above the foliage and develop seeds. Leave some seed heads standing to provide food for visiting birds during fall and winter.
