Red coneflowers are sun-loving perennials, prized for their large, flamboyant flower heads and long summer flowering period. They bring life to borders and beds, and can also be grown in large containers. They are perfectly hardy and easy to grow in any well-drained soil.

In regard to coneflowers, the range of reds spans from bright red to ruby red, with magenta, purple or orange hues. Echinacea SunSeekers ‘Red’ is a compact, well-branched plant with bright red flowers centred with a brownish-orange cone, ideal for borders and containers. The shorter ‘Prima Ruby’ variety bears ruby-red flowers with a dark centre, very decorative at the front of a border. ‘Red Knee High’ blooms in a magenta red tinged with pink, with slightly trailing ligules. More unusual Echinacea purpurea 'Eccentric' produces double flowers in purplish red with orange highlights, suitable for fresh or dried flower arrangements.

Red coneflowers pair beautifully with low ornamental grasses, red, white or blue flowering bushy sage, or summer asters. On a terrace or in a narrow border, opt instead for dwarf coneflowers. For more information, also consult our guide “How to plant Echinaceas”.
