A compact cultivar that has large, sugar-pink, double-flowers with drooping ray florets which develop lavender tones as they age. 'Pink Double Delight' bears its pom-pom-like blooms above dark green, toothed leaves and is great for adding late summer colour to the garden while providing interest for birds and bees. A great plant for containers or cottage and prairie style planting schemes. - Garden care: Lift and divide congested colonies in autumn or spring. In autumn cut back all dead flower stems to the ground. Coneflowers benefit from a spring or autumn mulch with well-rotted compost.
