Giddy Pink Coneflower 1 Gallon

Giddy Pink Coneflower (Echinacea ‘Giddy Pink’)

Giddy Pink Coneflower (Echinacea ‘Giddy Pink’) is a compact, floriferous coneflower prized for vibrant bubblegum pink daisies with a warm copper cone. Blooming from early summer into fall on sturdy, well branched plants, it brings saturated color, clean foliage, and dependable performance to sunny borders, cottage beds, and patio containers.

Distinctive Features

Broad, vivid pink petals hold their brightness in heat and full sun while strong, weather resistant stems keep flowers upright in wind and rain. Plants set buds continuously for months of color, and prominent cones add late season texture and natural seed for finches if left in place.

Growing Conditions

• Sun Exposure: Full sun for best flowering and compact habit; light afternoon shade is acceptable in very hot climates.
• Soil: Well drained garden soil; adapts to loam, sandy, or lightly rocky sites.
• Water: Moderate; water to establish, then allow the top inch of soil to dry between waterings.
• USDA Hardiness Zones: 4 to 9.
• Mature Size: Typically 16 to 22 inches tall and 14 to 20 inches wide.

Ideal Uses

• Focal Point: Bright, cheerful blooms pop in mixed borders and entry beds.
• Pollinator Gardens: Nectar rich flowers support bees and butterflies.
