DESCRIPTION
Echinacea Sombrero Salsa Red 'Balsomsed' produces vivid, deep red blooms from early summer through late summer, adding bold color to garden beds and borders. Each flower features a prominent, spiky cone in the center, surrounded by horizontally held petals that retain their rich hue as they mature. These vibrant blossoms attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, making the plant a valuable addition to wildlife-friendly landscapes.
Developed as part of the Sombrero series, 'Salsa Red' is bred for exceptional hardiness and a more compact, tidy growth habit. Its origins lie in cultivating robust and colorful varieties of the native purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea). This selection is ideal for gardens needing consistent, vivid color and is also well-suited for cutting gardens, where its long-lasting blooms add dramatic flair to arrangements.
