Terra Nova Nurseries has provided a sneak peek of its new Echinacea Delightful™ 'Lace'. This charming perennial is the latest addition to the popular Echinacea Delightful series and features sweetly scented, tubular petals that form a star at the end.
Echinacea Delightful 'Lace' presents landscape value in mixed beds and borders while offering a variety of special uses, including being deer-resistant, fragrant, and an effective pollinator and hummingbird attractor. The new echinacea displays a fast and mounding growth habit and thrives in the summer sun, blooming June through October. 'Lace' also prefers coarse and slightly mineral soil and requires low-water usage as well as full-sun exposure.
USDA Hardiness Zones for Delightful 'Lace' are 4-9. Finishing growers should allow this variety to dry moderately between waterings in the greenhouse. The finish time from a liner to a 4-inch pot is six to eight weeks; the finish time from a liner to a 1-gallon pot is 12 to 14 weeks. 'Lace' grows most actively in spring, reaching a height of 12", width of 16", and flower height of 14".
