Echinacea 'Apricot Rainbow Marcella' is a 2018 introduction from Holland's echinacea specialists, AB-Cultivars. The compact, sturdy 12-15" stalks are topped, starting in early June (NC) with a superb floral show of apricot-orange flowers, with a central blush of pink surrounding the orange central cone. Cut the old flower stalks to the ground after the initial flowering, and it should rebloom until frost.
