Bloom or Bust Guarantee

Coneflowers are valued for their long flowering season, nectar-rich blooms and sturdy stems, making them excellent choices for both wildlife gardens and summer arrangements.

Echinacea 'Green Twister' is a distinctive coneflower with lime-green petals flushed lilac-pink toward the centre, giving each bloom a fresh, two-tone look that draws the eye through summer.

It forms a sturdy clump with upright stems and prominent central cones, making it excellent for wildlife-friendly borders, prairie-style planting and cut flowers.

Plant in full sun or light shade in well-drained soil, avoiding sites that remain wet in winter. Once established, it is notably tolerant of heat and short dry spells.

Deadhead to prolong flowering or leave some seedheads standing for autumn structure and birds, then cut back old stems once growth finishes.

Aftercare:

Water during the first growing season and during long dry spells thereafter. Remove spent flowers if you want a tidier display, or leave some seedheads for structure and wildlife where appropriate.

I ordered the mixed hyacinth collection and the scent in my garden this April was absolutely heavenly. Every single bulb produced a strong, beautiful flower and the colours were stunning together. A fantastic purchase, I'll be back for more next year!
