Grow Echinacea × 'Sunmagic® Vintage Lipstick' for bold, saturated blooms and a tidy, garden-friendly habit. This compact coneflower is prized for deep hot-pink to red petals surrounding a darker center, giving you strong color from summer into fall. At maturity it typically reaches about 18-24 inches tall, with a similar footprint, so it fits neatly into mixed beds, sunny borders, and larger patio containers.

Give your plant full sun for the best flowering and the strongest stems. Plant it in well-drained soil and water deeply during its first growing season to help it establish a healthy root system. After it settles in, you can water as needed, letting the top of the soil dry slightly between waterings rather than keeping it constantly wet.

For the longest season of blooms, remove spent flowers as they fade and keep the surrounding area free of heavy competition. In late fall or early spring, you can cut back old stems to make room for fresh growth. A light spring feeding is usually enough in average garden soil, and too much fertilizer can lead to soft growth.

Hardy in USDA Zones 4-9, this perennial is an easy way to add late-season color and a pollinator-friendly presence to your landscape. Use it in repeating drifts for impact, mix it with ornamental grasses and other sun perennials for a prairie look, or feature it near walkways where you can enjoy the flowers up close.
