This collection of Coneflowers is ideal for adding a range of warm colours to your garden. The varieties that make up this collection, Echinacea purpurea 'Hot Summer', 'Big Kahuna', and 'Aloha', typically flower from July to October, fully blooming under radiant sunshine. Depending on the variety, they can reach a 60 to 90 cm height. The dark green foliage provides a lovely contrast to the flowers. These deciduous perennial plants are hardy, with their stump able to withstand temperatures as low as -20°C.
The collection consists of:
1 x Echinacea purpurea 'Hot Summer': This variety offers flowers in a vibrant orange that tend towards red as the season progresses. It can reach a height of 90 cm, and its foliage is dark green.
1 x Echinacea purpurea 'Big Kahuna': Distinguished by its honey-coloured flowers, this variety grows in dense clumps. It reaches a height of about 50-60 cm, has sturdy stems, and has a flowering period that lasts throughout the summer.
1 x Echinacea purpurea 'Aloha': With its lemon yellow flowers, 'Aloha' is the brightest of the collection. It grows up to 70 cm in height, and its foliage is slightly lighter than the other two varieties.
For best results, plant these Coneflowers in well-drained soil and full sun. They are perfect for borders, edges, and even pots on a terrace or balcony. 'Hot Summer', the tallest one, is ideally placed in the background, while 'Big Kahuna' and 'Aloha' can be planted in the middle or front. Plan for four plants per square metre and maintain a 40- to 50-cm distance between each plant.
For a harmonious garden, combine these Coneflowers with the Rudbeckia 'Goldsturm' and the Salvia nemorosa 'Caradonna'; their dark purple flowers will provide a striking contrast. Ornamental grasses like the Miscanthus sinensis 'Gracillimus' will accompany these perennials, adding texture and movement to your floral composition. The Coreopsis 'Moonbeam' presents pale yellow flowers that will complement the warm tones of the Coneflower collection. Its moderate height and spreading habit make it an excellent choice for the foreground or middle of the border, providing a smooth transition between the other plants. Combined with the Coneflowers, Rudbeckia, and sage, it will create a harmonious and colourful ensemble.

Botanical data
The Echinacea Hot Summer appreciates very sunny exposure and tolerates some shade in the afternoon. Plant it in a deep and well-drained soil. It is a hardy plant that withstands moderate drought, heat, and humidity. It even adapts when it is close to the coast or on a slope. Space the young plants 40 cm apart when planting. The echinacea is hungry, so regularly add a complete fertiliser to thrive. Prune the stems when the flowers have faded to encourage the next flowering. The echinacea doesn't like to be disturbed; it takes quite a while to establish itself.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
