Top performing coneflower in Mt. Cuba trials in 2018-2020!
Great plant with many flowers, intense coral-watermelon color (fades to orange), an early and long-flowering season and vigorous.
"Echinacea ‘Glowing Dream’ is a Terra Nova Nurseries hybrid that has incredible tropical pink blooms. A profusion of luminous flowers is held well above the foliage for six weeks in mid-June to mid-July, establishing ‘Glowing Dream’ as one of the longest blooming non-double Echinacea in our trial. This cultivar is most similar in form and color to ‘Sensation Pink’, although ‘Glowing Dream’ lacks the contrasting dark stems of the former cultivar. Like ‘Sensation Pink,’ ‘Glowing Dream’ was also one of the most visited coneflowers in our pollinator study."
Blooming time: late June/to July/August (with some rebloom later on)
Size: 24" (at Mt. Cuba older clumps reached up to 34") tall x 24" wide, spacing 14-18"
USDA zones: 4 to 9
Culture: sun, half sun, average soil, clay soil, loam, rocky soil, drained soils

Black Walnut Tolerant: yes
Deer/rabbit resistant: yes/yes
Attracts Butterflies or Pollinators: native bees, honey bees, butterflies, skippers, wasps
Attracts Hummingbirds: yes. Attracts little song birds and goldfinch feed on the seeds.
Pot Size: square 3.5" x 4" deep pot
Plant combinations: Easy to grow perennial for any sunny border, half sun to half shade (woodland edge with some sun). Fragrant gardens, moon gardens, prairie style borders, conventional flower beds, public spaces and gardens, small private gardens, cottage gardens, rain gardens. The possibilities of use and combinations are nearly never ending.
Good combos include: Agastache, Amsonia, Aster, Asclepias (tuberosa, sullivantii, purpurascens), Baptisia, Echinops, Eupatorium, Eryngium, Gaura, taller hardy Geraniums, Helenium, Hemerocallis, Iris, Kniphofia, Monarda, Perovskia, Phlox, Rudbeckia, Solidago, Veronicastrum, with native prairie grasses like Adropogon gerardii, Eragrostis spectabilis, Muhlenbergia, Panicum virgatum, Schizachyrium scoparium, Sporobolus heterolepis, etc.
