PETITTI Coneflower | Grow Echinacea for Repeat Blooms, Deer Resistance & Pollinators

Mid-summer is a fantastic time to add vibrant color to your garden and coneflowers are indispensable as far as providing variety and color to sunny spots in the landscape. Watch this video with Noelle, Horticulturist, and Education Director with Petitti Garden Centers, to learn more about the benefits of growing Echinacea in your garden. Along with long-lasting blooms, there is so much more coneflowers have to offer. They are deer resistant, they require very little maintenance and they attract all sorts of pollinators! If you are looking for taller coneflowers, check out varieties like Cheyenne Spirit and Pow Wow Wild Berry. If you prefer shorter, more compact varieties, look for the Sombrero series, Salsa Red & Flamenco Orange. For double flowers, check out the Double Scoop series with Cranberry & Raspberry!

I love my coneflowers…….and I realized that they do need to get established to take off. This is my 3rd year with one and wow……..I am sorry that I gave another one away last year thinking I was doing something wrong as it was not performing well. I realize now that it probably just needed another year or so. Live and learn……this is a great video……so glad I found your channel!

Noelle, Coneflowers are so beautiful & didn't realize so many colors are now avaiable. I did spray ulta weed beater in my flowers beds and appreciate Angelo's recommendation & always enjoy your videos and radio program that provide so much information as people call in with questions. Have a nice evening!

I have Coneflower --first time ever planted and I noticed yellow finches love it.

I started growing the new varieties last spring and they all came back stronger and prettier this year. I have 6 colors in my collection now. I have red, dark orange, med orange, yellow, pink and white. They sure put up a show. they definitely need very strong light and high ground and rich soil to perform best. Darwin Perennials did a great job introducing the new hybrids.

Just purchased some three weeks ago and an animal removed a few of the existing flowers bit into them and left them on the ground! 😏
New buds are forming so I am looking forward to a later showing of blooms!

Hi Noel. Great video. Love the Coneflower mix. I love the grass interplanted. Can you please tell me the variety? Thank you!!!

[flowerfairy]

Even though I have apparently the perfect place on paper I have not had any success 😭 south eastern Australia. Why is it the things you want are always the hardest to get? 😭

[ettietti]

Amazing Echinacea color collections, what to do with those Echinacea that are getting heavy and bending down? 😊

[sarahr]

Can I keep the Cheyenne variety for seed? If so, when I cut the spent bloom, what should it look like to produce seed? Really dry and black or sooner? Thank you. These plants are just gorgeous. I started from seed. Got 100% germination on them too!
