Echinacea ‘Hot Lava’ is a fantastic choice for a bright, mixed border. It bears rich red-orange blooms with a darker centre, on strong, tall stems. It’s a magnet for bees and other pollinators, and makes an excellent cut flower.
Grow Echinacea ‘Hot Lava’ in moist but well-drained soil in full sun. Team with grasses for a prairie look, or other hot-coloured blooms for a tropical feel.
