How should I plant Echinacea Sombrero Adobe Orange?
Plant your Echinacea in a full-sun location with well-drained soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the plant’s root ball and set it so the crown is level with the soil surface. Backfill, firm the soil, and water deeply. Adobe Orange performs best in average soil and doesn’t require overly rich conditions. Add a light layer of mulch to help retain moisture while the plant establishes, but avoid burying the crown too deeply.

How often should I water Echinacea Sombrero Adobe Orange?
Water newly planted coneflowers once or twice a week during the first month to help the roots establish. After that, Sombrero Adobe Orange is drought tolerant and rarely needs extra watering except during long, hot dry spells. Allow the top inch of soil to dry before watering again. This variety thrives in hot, sunny, and dry conditions, making it a perfect fit for low-maintenance or xeriscape gardens.

How do I fertilize Echinacea Sombrero Adobe Orange Coneflower?
Feed your Echinacea once in early spring with a slow-release balanced fertilizer or compost. Too much fertilizer can lead to excess foliage and fewer blooms, so a light application is best. These perennials perform well in average soil without heavy feeding. Adding a thin layer of compost annually helps maintain healthy soil and abundant flowers throughout the growing season.
How and when should I prune or deadhead Sombrero Adobe Orange?
Deadhead spent blooms regularly to encourage continuous flowering from summer through fall. Removing faded blooms keeps the plant tidy and extends the blooming season. At the end of the season, cut the stems down to about 3 inches above the soil in late fall or early spring. Alternatively, leave seed heads standing through winter—they add beauty to the garden and provide food for birds.
