Like all coneflowers, 'Red Ombre' Coneflower is a low-maintenance, colorful addition to any sunny garden. Returning year after year, this echinacea bears vibrant red blooms that gradually fade to orange, from early summer right up until frost. Eye-catching blooms top clumps of clean green foliage about two feet tall and wide, providing a great focal point for container planters, as well as putting on a show in borders and mass plantings. Drought tolerant once established and not a favorite of deer, coneflowers are great in cut flower gardens or dry spots in the garden.
