Double Scoop™ Cranberry Red Coneflower

Double Scoop™ Cranberry is the ‘Balscanery’ coneflower, an upright perennial with cranberry-red, double pom-pom flowers above deep green foliage. The blooms hold their color as they age and appear through summer, making this compact selection useful for sunny beds and containers. [Proven Winners](https://serv1.provenwinners.com/plants/echinacea/double-scoop-cranberry-coneflower-echinacea-hybrid) lists a mature height of 24–26 inches and spread of 16–22 inches. ## Garden use Use it in a sunny border, mixed perennial bed, or container, and cut the flowers for fresh or dried arrangements. Its flower heads attract pollinators, while the bold red color pairs well with ornamental grasses and plants with blue or purple flowers. ## Growing conditions Plant in full sun to part sun and provide well-drained soil with average moisture. Once established, it can tolerate dry spells; allow room for the clump to reach about 16–22 inches wide. ## Maintenance Remove faded flowers to keep the planting tidy and may encourage continued flowering. Leave some mature seed heads standing in fall if you want winter texture and a possible food source for birds.
