Echinacea Double Scoop™ Series

‘Double Scoop Mandarin’

Hot on the heels of National Ice Cream Day we have the Double Scoop series. A milk pail full of these festive daisies makes a suitable statement outside an ice cream shop—an establishment that gets a lot of traffic during the summer scorchers here in Cincinnati. It’s ok; echinacea can take the heat.

‘Double Scoop Raspberry’

Especially the Double Scoop series—we use these plants in full sun to make the most of the brilliant double flowers. Again, it’s ok; the intense color is non-fading so the show lasts all summer. Our two varieties, ‘Double Scoop Raspberry’ and ‘Double Scoop Mandarin’, look great together in combos or on the retail bench. They’re also very hardy and overwinter nicely.

‘Sombrero Flamenco Orange’ 

For a more traditional echinacea flower we recommend the Sombrero series. These rich, bright colors are equally eye-catching while the plants exhibit the same heat tolerance and winter hardiness as Double Scoop. You can expect similar long-lasting color, too. Both series grow about two feet tall and attract friendly pollinators to the garden.

Our Double Scoop selections are available in the 6-inch pot. ‘Sombrero Flamenco Orange’ and ‘Sombrero Lemon Yellow’ come in the 6-inch pot as well.
