I purchased 6 of these for a sunny border garden in spring of 2024. They were stunning and grew well all summer. Sadly every single one died over winter in zone 5b. I’m very disappointed as the quality of Proven Winners plants has never disappointed. They were planted in excellent soil and mulched over winter.

I love this echinacea plant. It is such a long bloomer! I bought it months ago and it has been blooming ever since and the blooms themselves last SO long. I am not a fan of yellow plants/flowers but this is such a pretty colour it is more muted and blends in well to my cottage garden. I highly recommend this plant.

This is a smaller variety and very nice! Softer yellow and a double. Successful so far!

I bought 11 and so far 4 have died and two more are in their final days. I spent $17 a piece so I’m going to be out $102. I planted them in high quality garden soil and had a drip irrigation line for water and they still died. Definitely not a Proven Winner plant. I bought Agastache plants only to read online that they aren’t hardy in my zone because they died over the winter for other people who planted them in my zone. I won’t be buying anymore Proven Winner plants.
