Echinacea Primadonna Deep Rose is a bold, dependable coneflower with large deep rose-pink blooms and a raised cone center. It has that classic prairie-style look customers recognize, but with stronger color and a more polished garden appearance. This variety is a great choice for perennial beds, pollinator gardens, sunny borders, and fresh cut flowers.
Primadonna Deep Rose Selling Tips
Customers like echinacea because it attracts butterflies and pollinators, handles heat and dry conditions once established, and comes back year after year in the right zone. The deep rose blooms also make it a strong choice for cut-flower growers and customers wanting long-lasting summer color.
General Growing Tips For Your Seedling Tray
Grow Primadonna Deep Rose in full sun to partial shade with well-drained soil. It performs best in average to slightly dry soil once established and does not like staying overly wet. A soil pH around 5.8 to 6.5 is a good general production range. Feed lightly to moderately with a balanced fertilizer around 75 to 125 ppm nitrogen as needed.
Flowering
Deep rose flowers bloom from summer through fall.
Pinching
Pinching is usually not needed. Deadheading spent blooms can encourage a cleaner look and may help extend blooming.
Spacing
We recommend spacing gallon containers 10-12 inches apart on center in your greenhouse.
Pests
Monitor for aphids, thrips, spider mites, leaf miners, and Japanese beetles.
Disease
Monitor for signs of botrytis and powdery mildew, especially during periods of high humidity.
Planting Primadonna Deep Rose Liners
We recommend planting two to three seedling plugs per 4-inch pot or three to five per gallon container.
Rooted Cuttings
Cuttings vary in size between different plant families. These rooted starter plants will arrive ready to be transplanted in to your final container. If they are to be used in a landscape application, you will need to establish them in a 4 inch pot or an 1801 before planting outside.

Before we take this relationship any further...
It looks like this is the first time you've added anything to your cart.
We just wanted to remind you that we are a wholesale starter plant company that sells to businesses, schools, clubs, and other non-profits. State law dictates that you must be growing for resale to order from us since we are not collecting sales tax.
If we aren't a match, we understand. It's not you, it's us.
We would look awful in orange jumpsuits.
