Echinacea Sundial 'Pink'

Sundial Pink Coneflower

Echinacea Sundial™ 'Pink' is a compact, mounding coneflower cultivar renowned for its abundant, anemone-type blooms. Each flower has soft pink petals that arch gracefully from a raspberry pink cone, highlighted by an emerald-green eye at its center. Blooming from early summer to mid-fall, these flowers provide continuous color and attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies.

Design tip

Use it as a steady framework plant, repeating it along a bed to tie separate plantings together. Give it open sun and room to fill out, and repeat it in threes or fives so the planting reads as one sweep instead of scattered dots.
