Echinacea (Coneflower)
Double Coded™ 'Raspberry Beret'
'Raspberry Beret' has fully double intense raspberry pink flowers, 4 wide, with ray petals to match. Petals are slightly lighter than the cone. Prolific floral production seated atop dense rosettes of foliage. Broad, horizontal ray petals maximize flower size. Plants are low, wide, and well-branched allowing for use along the front of the border. Enjoy as these perennials burst into life under the heat of midsummer. Be sure to leave some spent blooms on the plants in the fall because their seeds provide winter food for finches and other birds. The dried seed heads also provide architectural interest in the winter.

Coneflowers like it sunny and hot. Though they will tolerate light shade, fewer flowers will be produced and the plants will be weakened. Light, loamy soils are best but coneflowers will grow in any well-drained soil. Once established, they are quite drought tolerant. If properly cared for, they will form attractive colonies and will live for many years.
