Description
Find a space for Echinacea 'Double Scoop Bubblegum' and watch it pop with pink perfection! If your garden is like a candy store of flowers, add this one to your pick ‘n’ mix planting scheme—it looks right at home in a brimming-with-blooms cottage border. If you prefer to relax in a simpler setting, make Echinacea 'Double Scoop Bubblegum' part of a prairie planting and combine it with ornamental grasses for a soothing show of bee-friendly flowers among the breezy wafting stems of Panicum or Pennisetum.
As a perennial, you can expect to see Echinacea 'Double Scoop Bubblegum' return year after year for a show which continues to get better each time. Like most coneflowers, this one is easy to grow and low maintenance, requiring just a swift chop-back in autumn and a topping of mulch over winter to keep it snug. It’ll need regular watering at first but once Echinacea 'Double Scoop Bubblegum' is well and truly settled in and started to establish a clump-like root system, it’s handily quite drought tolerant.

Useful information
-
Soak the Echinacea 'Double Scoop Bubblegum' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your "Coneflower" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost in spring and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed. Some varieties are a length of root which should be planted lengthways and shallowly (1-2cm deep).
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
