Color Coded® ‘The Fuchsia is Bright’ Coneflower is low maintenance and hardy. This North America native thrives in USDA hardiness zones 4 - 8.

Color Coded® The Fuchsia is Bright Coneflower Care
This plant thrives in part sun to full sun (4 - 6 hours of direct sunlight daily). Color Coded® ‘The Fuchsia is Bright’ Coneflower plants tolerate some shade, but will be most showy and colorful in full sun. This coneflower can tolerate many types of soil, although ideally the soil should be fertile and well draining. These coneflowers are ideal for cut or dried flower arrangements, border plantings, or large-scale mass plantings.
When deadheading the spent blooms, you should cut back to a leaf node where a new bud can form. Removing spent blooms throughout the summer will encourage more flowers to appear. During the fall, you may choose to leave spent coneflower blooms in place to provide food for birds. Prune the plant down to the ground and mulch the surrounding soil before winter hits. Alternatively, cut back the spent foliage in early spring before new growth emerges.
Color Coded® The Fuchsia is Bright Coneflower Spacing
The spread for Color Coded® ‘The Fuchsia is Bright’ Coneflower is 16 - 18 inches. For best growth results, allot at least 16 - 18 inches of space between each plant.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
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. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
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. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

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.
