About Echinacea Bolero Pink 2 Litre Pot

Echinacea Bolero Pink – 2 Litre Pot

Echinacea Pink’ is a compact, free-flowering coneflower that produces an abundance of vibrant rosy-pink blooms with bold orange-brown central cones from early summer through to autumn. Part of the acclaimed Sombrero Series, it combines outstanding flowering performance with a neat, well-branched habit, making it ideal for borders, patio containers, and wildlife-friendly planting.

Supplied in a 2 litre pot, this healthy, well-established plant quickly settles into the garden, where it will provide months of colourful blooms year after year.

The vivid flowers are carried on sturdy upright stems that rarely require staking, creating a reliable display of long-lasting colour. The rich pink petals contrast beautifully with the prominent central cones, adding warmth and vibrancy to mixed planting schemes.

A magnet for bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinating insects, ‘Sombrero Pink’ is a valuable addition to any wildlife garden. As the flowers fade, the seed heads remain attractive well into autumn and winter, providing both architectural interest and a food source for birds.

Thriving in full sun, this hardy perennial prefers fertile, well-drained soil and becomes drought tolerant once established. It is exceptionally easy to grow and requires very little maintenance beyond occasional deadheading to encourage even more blooms.

Compact, colourful, and exceptionally floriferous, Echinacea ‘Sombrero Pink’ is perfect for adding long-lasting summer colour to gardens of any size.
