Deep saturated pink petals, the Kismet® Raspberry Coneflower PP #28,768 (Echinacea x 'TNECHKR') is a powerfully pink Echinacea that is prized for its smaller, compact nature and vivid blooms!
Forming branched mounds of scratchy green leaves, Coneflowers are late-blooming plants that fill your summer and fall gardens with brilliant color and unique texture. The incredible pink petals have a lighter underside for a two-tone effect. Lasting for a long time in the garden and in the vase! Keep snipping blooms for your bouquets or just regularly deadhead the spent flowers for rebloom right until the first frost!
Kismet® Raspberry Coneflowers are cold and heat tolerant throughout USDA planting zones 4 to 9 and only grow into spikey mounds 18-24 inches tall and wide! The spiked, domed centers of each flower become equally spikey brown seedheads each fall that add texture to the fall and winter landscape, seeds for songbirds, or curious texture in dried floral bouquets!
Planting and Application:
Kismet® Coneflowers are naturally shorter and compact, never getting leggy. Perfect bright beacons of color in the sun garden, any Rock Garden, Cottage border, modern Pollinator garden, or mixed perennial border welcome these easy-care gems into their midst. Spice up a Prairie planting, or jazz up a Cut flower garden with the brilliant Raspberry-colored blooms!
The roots are quite xeric and hardy once established and Coneflower are highly recommended for use in fire-wise landscapes too! Wonderfully low maintenance, these short and compact Raspberry Coneflowers look fantastic as edging and en masse throughout some of the sunniest and driest locations around your garden!
Plant Kismet® Raspberry Coneflower in container gardens and planters, readily becoming colorful fillers and thrillers on hot sunny porches and patios! Mix with other bright jewel tones, yellows, oranges, and reds, or cool things off by mixing with green flowers, white, and light pinks. These are wonderful front-of-the-garden mixers when planted with taller Coneflower varieties too!
- Bold Raspberry Pink Petals & Prickly Domed Centers
- Dramatic Spikey Seedheads For Fall/Winter Interest
- Pollinator Nectar & Pollen Resource & Bird Seed
- Xeriscaping & Fire-Wise Landscaping.
- Great in Containers & Planters
- Front of the Border Specimens, Edging & Small-Space Gardens
#ProPlantTips for Care
These hardy and xeric Perennials are wonderfully easy to grow! Full sun is best for the strongest stems, the most looms, and the densest growth. Once established, these plants won't need much additional water and handle occasional drought, but new plants appreciate regular waterings. These plants must have loose very fast-draining soil or their roots will rot. They do appreciate a 3-4 inch layer of mulch around their roots. Wait to prune until early spring before new growth emerges for best results.
- Full Sun, Some Part Shade
- Needs Well-Drained Soil
- Regular Moisture At First - Then Low Water Usage Perennial
- Deadhead For Rebloom & Prune Back In Early Spring
- Not High On Deer & Rabbit Nibble Lists
