Artisan Soft Orange Coneflower (Echinacea x hybrida) enriches the summer-to-fall landscape with large, orange petals that gracefully lighten to warm, dusky tones. Its long-blooming nature draws in butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees, making your garden a lively seasonal retreat. Unlike many other perennials, this robust coneflower combines colorful petals with a hardy, low-maintenance habit. Its upright form adds structure and eye-catching appeal, whether used in borders, wildflower meadows, or container plantings.
This native cultivar features a soft, mild fragrance and resists deer, helping it maintain pristine foliage throughout the growing season. It tolerates drought once established and thrives in both cottage-style and modern settings. Its rigid stems and seed-filled cones persist into fall and winter, providing food sources for birds and adding subtle texture. Plant it in mass groupings, add it to mixed borders, or display it in a decorative pot for an appealing seasonal accent.
Artisan Soft Orange Coneflower Care
Choose a sunny location with at least six hours of direct sunlight each day and well-drained soil enriched with compost. Water lightly after planting, allowing the soil surface to dry before the next watering cycle. This perennial prefers slightly acidic to neutral soil and benefits from a monthly, balanced fertilizer application during the growing season. While it can handle dry conditions once established, maintain moderate moisture for best bloom development. With proper placement and minimal care, this plant will reward you with multiple flowering seasons.
Prune spent blooms to encourage repeat flowering, but leave some seed heads intact for winter interest and bird feeding. A late-season trim can help manage size and shape, while a light clean-up in early spring removes old growth before the next season’s display. In colder climates, adding a layer of mulch around the base helps protect roots. Container-grown plants may need occasional repotting as they mature.
Artisan Soft Orange Coneflower Spacing
When creating a hedge or mass planting, space plants 15 to 25 inches apart for an attractive, cohesive display. In containers, allow enough room for roots to expand and ensure proper drainage. This spacing provides adequate airflow and helps maintain healthy foliage and abundant blooms over time.

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
