THink they are drough tolerant, but if they are newly planted they might like a regular drink until they are established. I also planted Echinops this year and yours look healthier than mine!!!! tho starting to pick up now :-)

They're beautiful! Tell hime that they develop a fab blue glow at the edges of the "spikes" that lasts ages; later the birds like the seeds. They can get a bit dominating, so ours are restricted in a raised bed by a hedge to limit their exuberance....so far so good!
