Description
Be bold with colour and introduce Echinacea 'Yellow Passion' into your planting scheme. You’ll find this sunny shade of yellow adds warmth to your palette whilst contrasting vividly among neighbouring blues and purples, accentuating and highlighting the cooler colours in your border. Or, if your garden has a more contemporary and less floral style, the golden glow and simple shape of coneflowers like these perfectly complement soft ornamental grasses and other verdant foliage plants. If cottage or boho garden is more on your wavelength, there’s got to be some blocks of brilliant yellow to add to the spectrum of colours you’re flaunting. In all respects, Echinacea 'Yellow Passion'works anywhere!
Echinacea 'Yellow Passion', like most coneflowers, is loved by pollinators which will visit the flowers regularly, bringing your garden to life with a busy buzz. Flowering through most of summer, this variety not only looks great outdoors but can flower repeatedly if the blooms are regularly cut – you can create pretty posies with equally vibrant flowers or mingle them among grassy foliage for a more muted, summery bouquet. Plant your Echinacea 'Yellow Passion' bare roots into temporary pots to get them off to a gentle start, then transfer them into the garden when they’ve established some growth and look forward to a clump of coneflowers which improves ever year as it matures.

Useful information
-
Soak your Echinacea 'Yellow Passion' 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.
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.
