Notes
'Raspberry Tart' coneflower (Echinacea 'Raspberry Tart') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, pollinator gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Deer tend to pass it by. Raspberry rays surround an orange-brown center disk from early to late summer. The fragrant blooms attract butterflies, bees, and birds, and the plant tolerates drought.
Pairs well with Clustered bellflower, Blonde Ambition blue grama, and Nodding onion.
