Notes
Double Dipped Rainbow Sherbet coneflower (Echinacea Double Dipped Rainbow Sherbet) is a perennial for sunny summer borders, containers, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to average soil. Fragrant, fully double flowers open orange and turn coral pink in early to late summer. Deer tend to pass it by. Bees visit the blooms, and the seeds feed birds in winter.
Pairs well with Purrsian Blue nepeta, Blue grama, and Blanket flower.
