Echinacea purpurea 'Milkshake' is a fantastic echinacea, bearing fully double, pom-pom-like blooms in white with a golden-yellow centre, that don’t fade with age. Long-lasting, its blooms are perfect for cutting. What’s more, plants are well-branched and don’t need staking.
Grow Echinacea purpurea 'Milkshake' in moist but well-drained soil in full sun in the middle of a border or in a pot. Cut back spent blooms to encourage repeat-flowering.
