Canby, Ore. – Terra Nova Nurseries announced today a sneak peek of the brand new Echinacea KISMET® White variety. The new plant is the much-anticipated fifth introduction to the KISMET® series, following KISMET Intense Orange, KISMET Raspberry, KISMET Red, and KISMET Yellow.
KISMET White was bred with the same traits for which its predecessors have become known. It has a compact, upright habit. Its key characteristics and numerous, large and long-lasting flowers with a long bloom time make it a nicely suited option in gallons, gardens, beds, borders, containers, and other uses.
This new white beauty offers special uses to include deer resistance or as a cut flower, and pollinator and hummingbird attractor. It has been bred for applications in the deep South or areas where low-water usage is present.
U.S.D.A. Hardiness Zones for KISMET White are 4-9, and exposure is full sun. The variety’s mature height is 15” with a width of 18” and flower height of 18”. Bloom time extends from June through October.
Terra Nova Nurseries has created a “Plant Profile” page and “Grower Recipe” specific to this new variety so growers interested in possible orders can learn about growing habits, plant characteristics, fertilization recommendations, water requirements, and other insights provided by the breeding team.
