ECHINACEA 'SunSeekers Salmon'
ECHINACEA 'SunSeekers Salmon'
Echinacea 'SunSeekers Salmon' is a hardy, clump-forming coneflower noted for its warm salmon-toned, daisy-like blooms with a prominent cone, opening through summer into early autumn. Ideal for sunny Irish borders and cottage-style plantings, it thrives in moderately fertile, well-drained soil and provides reliable seasonal colour that is highly attractive to bees and other pollinators. A robust herbaceous perennial, it makes a good cut flower; deadhead to extend the display, or leave some seedheads for seasonal structure.
To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
