Echinacea paradoxa var. paradoxa

A real paradox! This is the rare and most unusual 'purple cone flower' with yellow flowers. Back in 1902 it was first named Brauneria paradoxa and after further changes to its taxonomy is now a member of the Echinaceas. A prized and seldom offered border plant.

Echinacea purpurea Double Decker

A very unusual purple-red flowered variety that produces predominantly single flowers in the first growing season, followed by a high percentage of these visually stunning 'twin' flowers in the second season, with the chance that some may even be fully double.

These intriguing flowers grace tall, strong stems and make superb long lasting border perennials, attracting many beneficial insects to your garden.

Echinacea purpurea Lustre Hybrids

A robust, long-lived border plant with superb flowering performance and excellent weather resistance. This very attractive mixture offers shades of pink and red as well as glistening white. Excellent for borders or makes a high quality cut flower. Prefers a light, well-drained soil in full sun. Height 45-60cm (18-24in).

Echinacea purpurea Magnus

An outstanding selection of the 'Cone Flower', distinguished by the warm bright colour of its exceptionally large flowers. The slender elegance and formality of its petals give it a style that will add class to larger flower arrangements. In the border it is no less valuable on account of its robust strong stems and general vigour which give 'Magnus' good wind and weather resistance. Flower in their first season from an early sowing. Flowers mid summer to winter. Height 1m (36 inches).

Echinacea purpurea Pink Parasol

Once established, bushy plants produce clusters of stems adding height to your borders, attracting butterflies and beneficial insects to your garden, as well as making dramatic long lasting cut flowers.
