Brand New: Echibeckia 'Summerina' series!

Echibeckia 'Summerina' series

It's not every day that we get to debut an entirely new plant species. New characteristics? Sure. New colors? All the time. But an entirely new plant species? That's pretty rare!

At Vander Giessen Nursery, we're proud to debut the brand-new echibeckia 'Summerina' series. A cross between an echinacea (coneflower) and rudbeckia (black-eyed susan), echibeckia boasts the beautiful colors and fast growth of a rudbeckia with the hardiness of an echinacea.

With huge flowers that last for up to three months, echibeckia is a great way to add color to your garden from summer through early autumn. Additionally, this perennial is self-cleaning, so it needs no deadheading to keep blooming.

Plant echibeckia in well-drained soil with full- to part-sun exposure. Grows to 36" tall. Hardy to Zone 6, this great new perennial will overwinter in our climate.
