Reiman Gardens switched to A.D.R. Bulbs 12 years ago and has never looked back. The bulbs are high quality and the customer service is exceptional. Chris and Philipp are always willing to answer my many questions! We take pride in supporting one of the last remaining bulb farms that grows and exports.

Thriving in full sun with minimal care, this drought-tolerant perennial is ideal for borders, pollinator gardens, and cut arrangements.

Planting: Plant bare roots in early to mid-spring after the danger of frost has passed. Soak roots in water for 3–6 hours before planting to rehydrate. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root mass and deep enough to spread the roots out comfortably. Position the crown just at or slightly below soil level, then backfill and water thoroughly.
Location: Choose a sunny site (6+ hours daily). Echinacea thrives in open, well-lit spaces and tolerates poor soils once established.
Soil: Well-drained, moderately fertile soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH (6.0–7.0). Avoid soggy or compacted areas.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist during establishment. Once new growth appears, reduce watering—Echinacea is drought-tolerant once established.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 3–9. No winter protection needed in most climates.
Fertilization: Minimal feeding required. Compost in spring is usually sufficient. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers.
Pruning: Deadhead to encourage reblooming, or leave seed heads for winter interest and wildlife. Cut back in late winter or early spring.
Propagation: Divide clumps every 3 to 4 years in spring or fall. Some varieties self-seed readily.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free and deer-resistant. Good air circulation helps prevent mildew.
