Coneflower 'Delicious Candy'
Echinacea 'Delicious Candy'
1 gallon pot
An earlier flowering Coneflower, the glowing fuchsia-pink flowers are practically fluorescent! A single row of petals surround huge pom-pom cones. Echinacea Delicious Candy provides vibrant color long into the season.
Bred by Dutch Plant Breeder, Marco Van Noort, this lovely Coneflower is aka Echinacea Noortdeli. Butterflies love the flowers and birds love the seeds, and the seedheads are attractive in the winter. If removing them, leave the foliage at the base of the plant to overwinter. Coneflowers generally don't need to be divided, but can be divided in early spring or early fall.
