Echinacea DELIGHTFUL™ 'Tropics'

Echinacea DELIGHTFUL™ ‘Tropics’ is a show-stopping orange coneflower bursting with fully double, pompom-style blooms in a dazzling blend of peach, mango, and ruby grapefruit tones - a true celebration of its tropical name. As the rounded flowers mature, their colours deepen and intensify and provide an exceptionally prolific and long-lasting display – from June to October! Sweetly scented and irresistibly vibrant, the flowers are a magnet for pollinators and hold their brilliant colour even through the heat of summer.

Part of the DELIGHTFUL™ Series, bred specifically for the pot and container market, DELIGHTFUL Tropics coneflower offers a neat, compact habit without sacrificing performance. Growing to just 40 cm (16 in) tall and wide, this orange coneflower plant is perfectly proportioned for patio containers, balconies, and small-space gardens - while also shining in cottage gardens, pollinator plantings, perennial borders, and cut flower beds. Dense, matte-green foliage forms a uniform mound that provides the perfect backdrop to the vivid, tropical blooms.

Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, this double orange Echinacea is drought tolerant once established and is happy with moderate watering and minimal maintenance. There is no need for pinching to achieve a full display. Deer resistant and wonderfully easy to grow, it delivers effortless colour all season long.

Experience the energy and warmth of the tropics at home. Echinacea DELIGHTFUL™ ‘Tropics’ promises magnificent colour and reliable performance whether showcased on the patio or planted in the garden.
