Transform your garden with the dramatic Echinacea ‘Dark Shadows Wicked.’ This striking perennial features deep, velvety glowing pink blooms with striking dark brown centers, creating a captivating contrast that adds a touch of mystery and allure to your garden. The bold, daisy-like flowers are held on sturdy stems, making them an excellent choice for adding depth and intrigue to borders, beds, or containers.
‘Dark Shadows Wicked’ has long-lasting blooms, which appear from mid-summer through fall, providing continuous color and attracting pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. This Echinacea variety is both hardy and low-maintenance.
Care:
- Thrives in full sun. Water well as they are getting established, they require minimal watering once established and are fairly drought-resistant. Plant in well-drained soil that isn’t too rich, as overly fertile soil can lead to weaker, leggy growth. Leave flower remnants/seed for the birds over winter and cut back in February/March.
*Please note that hybrid varieties of Echinacea may not be true to seed, meaning that seeds collected from these plants may not produce offspring with the same characteristics as the parent plant.
