Echinacea SunSeekers® Rainbow Coneflower

If you're looking for a plant that adds both energy and endurance to your summer garden, Echinacea SunSeekers® Rainbow delivers a full-season show. This compact coneflower brings multi-color magic with semi-double blooms that shift through soft yellow, coral, salmon, pink, and lavender tones as they mature. Standing 24 inches tall and wide, it forms a tidy, upright mound with strong branching and sturdy stems—perfect for cutting without flopping. From early summer through fall, its vibrant flowers attract bees and butterflies while keeping your garden in bloom longer than many others.

Commonly called coneflower, SunSeekers® Rainbow is a colorful standout in perennial beds, prairie gardens, borders, and even containers. It plays especially well with other sun-loving, drought-tolerant perennials like Rudbeckia, Salvia, Agastache, Coreopsis, and Sedum. Whether planted in mass for a glowing carpet of ever-changing color or tucked into a pollinator border, this variety brings diversity and movement with its evolving petals.

This variety thrives in full sun and adapts easily to different soil types—including clay and sandy conditions—as long as it's well-drained. Hardy in Zones 4-9, it tolerates drought, heat, and deer pressure with ease. Bred as part of the SunSeekers® series, it's known for compact habit, strong basal branching, and long bloom time. What sets SunSeekers® Rainbow apart is the shifting, painterly palette it offers across the seasons, providing dynamic color that changes with time, all with very little fuss.
