Panama Rose Everblooming Coneflower (Echinacea) – 1 Gallon Pot

---

Panama Rose is the first URC grown Echinacea bred to be everblooming. Extremely floriferous, its blooms begin to appear in late spring to early summer, continuing non-stop through summer and well into fall for a period of 22 to 24 weeks. Its fragrant flowers feature bronze center cones that are surrounded by a skirt of dark magenta-rose petals. This one doesn’t require deadheading to keep new blooms coming, and the older flowers retain the same rich color for longer than others, making them excellent for cutting and display in a vase or floral arrangement. The plant remains compact and neat in the landscape, adding fabulous color to garden beds and container gardens.

The Panama Rose Coneflower thrives well in landscape and garden beds, as well as in containers. Growing 12 to 18 inches tall and equally as wide, it is ideal for use as an accent in smaller garden spaces and container gardens. It is truly breathtaking in groupings or mass plantings in sunny landscape or woodland borders and perennial gardens. It is a fine addition to butterfly, cut flower, beneficial pollinator, hummingbird, cottage, and pink theme gardens.

Suggested Spacing:  16″ for mass plantings 

Panama Rose Coneflower is easy to grow in moist, well-drained soil of average fertility in full sun or part shade. Provide at least 5 hours of direct sun for best flowering. As with many other perennial plants, constantly soggy or wet soils can be problematic. Heavy, dense clay soils should be amended with organic matter to improve drainage. It is drought-tolerant when established. Spent flowers can be deadheaded if desired, though do consider leaving some on the plant late in the season to provide seeds for birds during winter.
