Dark Shadows™ Wicked Coneflower - Echinacea - Gallon Pot

Glowing watermelon-pink, daisy-like flowers cluster atop dark chocolate brown stems. Flowers are displayed in slightly varying heights as if carefully arranged for a stunning bouquet. Large toasty brown cones punctuate the centers for contrast and texture. Strong, upright habit and masses of single flowers. It’s hard to imagine a sunny perennial border without Coneflowers. Butterflies love the flowers, birds love the seeds, and we love the long-lasting bouquets. Like all Coneflowers, Echinacea Wicked makes an excellent cut flower. Enjoy this easy, long-lived, thoroughly charming perennial in garden and container. Zones 4-9. Easy to grow, prolific bloomer. Deadheading will prevent seeding, but birds are crazy about the seeds, and the seedheads are attractive in the winter, especially in the snow. If removing them, leave the foliage at the base of the plant to overwinter. May be slow to emerge in the spring. These generally don't need to be divided, but can be divided in early spring or early fall.
