Product Description

Native to North America, this attention-grabbing Echinacea variety has the stunning ability to change colour. 'Hot Summer' produces blooms that change from golden orange to fiery red that stand on sturdy chocolate/green stems at a height of 90cm. Also known as Coneflowers, due to their large centre, the petals are slightly reflexed giving an almost daisy-like appearance that flower from June to September. This charming flower makes a striking impact to garden borders and containers, with a beautiful fragrance that also attracts butterflies and bees but can also be cut to make a feature within the home as part of a floral arrangement. First grade loose plants supplied.

Growing at a glance…

Cut back when blooms begin to fade, as this will help encourage future growth. Protect from excessive winter wet. Ideal for containers and front of border displays. Dig a hole in the border that is big enough to house the entire module. Do this until the top of the soil from the module is just below the top of the pot. Fill around the modules with soil and firm them down gently. Water well.
