Echinacea DARK SHADOWS™ 'Mystic'

This pink Coneflower, part of the DARK SHADOWS&trade: series, is celebrated for its single, true pink blooms and contrasting central cones that absolutely blanket the lush foliage in vibrant colour. Flowers emerge in bright shell pink with a rich cocoa centre, then gradually transform as the season progresses - the eye deepens to a gorgeous red velvet tone while the petals soften to a romantic antique pink. With blooms at various stages throughout the season, the plant creates a dynamic, multi-tonal display July through September.

Reaching up to 55 cm (22 in) tall and 45 cm (18 in) wide, DARK SHADOWS Mystic Coneflower has a clumping habit and forms a compact, upright, vase-like shape. Its pointed green leaves contrast nicely against dark stems, and remain attractive throughout the season. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils with dry to medium moisture, this pink coneflower plant is notably tolerant of drought, heat, and humidity - and is deer resistant. Low-maintenance and carefree, this reliable performer is a must-have addition to any sunny garden.

This shell-pink Echinacea flowers are exceptional for both fresh-cut bouquets and dried arrangements, bringing lasting beauty indoors as well as out.

Deadheading spent blooms encourages continuous flowering. Loved by butterflies and other pollinators, Echinacea DARK SHADOWS™ 'Mystic' also supports birds and wildlife if seed heads are left in place. Perfect for mixed beds, mass plantings, borders, and containers, this pink Echinacea delivers evolving season-long colour and effortless charm wherever it’s planted.
