About This Plant
Echinacea 'Sombrero Salsa Red' (Coneflower), 'Sombrero Salsa Red', is valued for seasonal interest and the role it plays in PNW garden borders.
Coneflowers (Echinacea) are tough North American prairie perennials with cone-shaped flowers in pink, white, orange, or yellow. Pollinator and goldfinch favorites; drought-tolerant.
Full sun suits this species. Plant in well-drained soil. Hardy USDA Zone 3 to 9. Leave seed heads through winter for goldfinches. Generally trouble-free.
For a Pacific Northwest native perennial of similar character, consider Aquilegia formosa (Western Red Columbine), Tellima grandiflora (Fringecups), or Dicentra formosa (Pacific Bleeding Heart) , all support native pollinators.
