Pairs well with

Sombrero Fiesta Orange carries semi-double flowers mixing orange and coral-pink to true red petals, so each bloom shows more than one color and has more substance than a single daisy. Echinacea Sombrero Fiesta Orange grows 18 to 22 inches tall and 22 to 24 inches wide in full sun to part sun, hardy from Zone 4 through Zone 9.

Bloom starts in early summer and reblooms into fall on stiff, well-branched stems. Deadheading keeps the display going.

The habit is compact and rounded, spreading wider than tall, which suits a container or the front of a border.

Leave the last seedheads standing at the end of the season for goldfinches. Coneflowers take drought, heat, humidity, and poor soil once established, and they want well-drained ground. Winter wet is the usual cause of failure, so avoid low spots that stay saturated. Deer generally leave them alone.

Planting and Care Guide

Planting Tips

Plant in spring in average, well-drained soil, spacing 18–24 inches apart. Fiesta Orange produces vivid, bright orange flowers with a dark central cone on a compact, tidy plant. It adapts to average garden conditions without special soil preparation. Water regularly for the first few weeks, then reduce as the plant becomes established and heat-tolerant.

Care Tips

Deadhead consistently to keep new blooms forming, or leave seed heads for birds. Divide every three to four years in spring. No heavy fertilizing is needed. The vibrant orange color is outstanding in mixed borders and pairs beautifully with deep purples, blues, and golds in the late summer garden. The compact Sombrero habit makes this an excellent choice for smaller borders, containers, and cutting gardens.
