The name for Double Scoop Mandarin Coneflower sounds almost as pretty as it looks. This bright orange Echinacea hybrid has double pom-pom style flowers. Unlike some Echinaceas, the rich color doesn't fade as the flowers age. You can even cut the stalks for fresh or dried flower arrangements. And with a little attention, they will continue to bloom all summer for a sizzling display of deep reddish orange color.
Double Scoop Mandarin Coneflower attracts bees, butterflies, and birds with its bright orange "landing pad." Echinaceas are deer resistant, though. The unusual color of Double Scoop Mandarin makes it a perfect thriller plant in the center of a container or as a welcoming and colorful border. The plants are drought tolerant once they mature and can handle cold and heat of zones 4 through 9. They're so pretty and easy, an entire "field" of these coneflowers will make traffic stop in your neighborhood most of the summer.
Double Scoop Mandarin Coneflower Care
Plant Double Scoop Mandarin Coneflower in full sun if possible or a few hours of shade a day. The plant needs to be in soil that drains well enough to prevent roots from being too wet for long. Make sure your soil or potting mix has good drainage. Remove flowers as they begin to dry or fade to encourage more blooms. There is no need to fertilize your coneflower; just give it a fresh layer of compost each spring.
Double Scoop Mandarin Coneflower Spacing
Double Scoop Mandarin Coneflower plants grow about 2 feet high and wide, so be sure to space them about 16 to 22 inches apart to keep all of them healthy once full size.

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. 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).

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.
