Echinacea Princess 'Citrus' showcases an extraordinary colour progression—blooms open light green, shift to luminous lemon yellow with green-tipped petals, then deepen to soft orange tones surrounding a fragrant golden centre. This compact cultivar reaches just 18 inches, making it ideal for containers, borders, and small garden spaces. Flowering prolifically from early summer through frost, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, attracting pollinators while resisting deer. Perfect for cottage gardens, cut flower arrangements, and pollinator havens.
