Echinacea Double Dipped® Watermelon Sugar - Coneflower

These coneflowers have fully double 4.5" flowers and eye popping pink color. The DOUBLE DIPPED® collection was hybridized for improved color and strong stems that won't fall or bend. Of medium height 'Watermelon Sugar' works in a wide variety of garden schemes and companion plantings. We've always liked double blooming coneflowers for their pom-pom like appearance and the uniqueness they add to the garden.  In late summer as the days lengthen perennial coneflowers emerge with a splendid display that is hard to beat for color intensity and attractiveness. This nativar is a huge hit with butterflies, bees and other pollinators while adding variety to your native plant color pallet. It will bring the appeal of the American prairie back into your yard. Be sure to leave the spent flowers through winter as coneflowers will attract finches and other seed eaters to your yard through late fall and the colder months. Photo Credit: Walters Gardens
