Tomato Soup Echinacea (Coneflower) brings warm red shades to this garden favorite. Fragrant flowers 5- to 6-inches wide entice butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds to the garden. Quickly grows into dense clumps with abundant blooms perfect for cutting. Seed heads provide food for goldfinches and are lovely in dried arrangements. A native selection with good deer resistance. (Echinacea hybrid)
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
24-36" tall x 12-24" wide. Plant Tomato Soup Echinacea (Coneflower) in drifts throughout cottage gardens and mixed borders for a tapestry of color. The tomato-red blooms fade to coral and pink hues with age, providing contrast within the planting. A color break-through in Echinacea breeding, Tomato Soup requires full sun to show best red color. This hardy perennial blooms early to late summer. Coneflowers are widely adaptable to a variety of growing sites from shallow rocky soils to dry clay, provided drainage is adequate. Allow soils to dry slightly between watering. Plants tolerate heat and humidity and are drought-tolerant once established. Deadhead Tomato Soup in the first year to help plants establish and thrive. Allow seed heads to stand in years to come for added beauty throughout the winter months.
