Plant description
Bright tangerine-orange flowers bring a warm splash of colour to summer borders, with each bloom held on sturdy, upright stems above a neat mound of green foliage. The semi-double flowers of Echinacea SunSeekers Mineola Mineola have layered petals surrounding a distinctive lime-green to brown central cone, creating plenty of texture and interest for plant lovers and pollinating insects as they open from mid summer into autumn.
Growing to around 50-60cm tall, this compact coneflower fits easily into herbaceous borders, wildlife gardens and sunny containers. Its long flowering season makes it especially useful for extending late-summer colour.
Please note that any pots in the photographs are not supplied with the plants (which are sent out in simple nursery alternatives), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.

How to care for Echinacea Sunseekers Mineola ('Ifecssmin') (SunSeekers Series):
Plant Echinacea directly into well-prepared borders or larger pots and containers, spacing them at 15-20cm (6-8in) intervals. Water well after planting and while they are in active growth.
The seed heads are attractive, and are a valuable food source for birds during the cooler months, so avoid cutting them back (to just above soil level) until late winter.
Over time, Echinacea will form larger clumps with more flowering stems, so they can be lifted and divided in autumn or spring to maintain vigour and flowering performance. Taller cultivars in exposed locations will benefit from staking.
