Plant description
A compact, upright, perennial coneflower with attractive, colour-shifting yellow-pink blooms that mature to shades of pink. The overall effect is one of a multi-tonal, pinkish rainbow at any one time as vivid, new flowers emerge, and older blooms fade to paler hues. Extremely attractive to pollinators, ‘Sunseekers Rainbow’ is equally so for the cut flower enthusiast who will enjoy armfuls of long-lasting colourful blooms over the summer season.

How to care for Echinacea SunSeekers Rainbow ('IFECSSRA') (PBR) (SunSeekers Series):
Lift and divide congested clumps in autumn or spring. In autumn cut back all dead flower stems to the ground. Coneflowers benefit from a spring or autumn mulch with well-rotted compost.
