Product description

The Echinacea 'Parrot' is a truly captivating cultivar that brings a sophisticated, artistic flair to the perennial garden. Renowned for its unique, bi-colored petals that unfurl in a striking display of warm sunset hues, this variety showcases a harmonious blend of deep magenta and golden-orange tones. Its sturdy, upright stems support large, daisy-like blooms that possess a distinct, slightly ruffled texture, creating a sense of movement and depth. As a magnet for pollinators, 'Parrot' not only serves as a focal point in mixed borders but also provides a vital sanctuary for bees and butterflies, ensuring the garden remains a vibrant, living ecosystem throughout the summer and early autumn months.

Growing conditions and cultivation

To ensure the most prolific flowering and robust health, the Echinacea 'Parrot' thrives best in a position that receives full sun, although it will tolerate light, dappled shade in warmer climates. It prefers fertile, well-draining soil that remains moderately moist during the growing season, though it demonstrates excellent drought tolerance once fully established. For optimal performance, it is recommended to deadhead spent blooms to encourage a secondary flush of flowers and to maintain a tidy appearance. During the late autumn, the stems may be left standing to provide architectural interest and winter food for birds, before being cut back to the ground in early spring to make way for fresh, vigorous growth.
