Echinacea purpurea seeds - ????????? Listing for 50 seeds Germination rate 85% How to Grow: Site Preparation: Purple cone flowers are not fussy and will endure most conditions. However, give them rich, well-drained soil and plenty of sunshine and plants will thrive. Generous amounts of organic compost or aged animal manure mixed in to the ground prior to planting will vastly improve the health of plants. Coneflowers will tolerate heat and drought. How to Plant: Echinacea is easy to grow from nursery stock, seed or division. Sow outdoors 1/2 inch deep when a light frost is still possible. Seeds will germinate in 10-20 days. Flowers reliably bloom the first year from seed if sown early . Pinch off spent flowers on a regular basis ? or use them as cuttings in flower arrangements ? to extend the blooming period. Apply a quality flower fertilizer several times during the gardening season to promote big, beautiful blossoms. Mulch to prevent weeds, conserve moisture and improve aesthetics. Cut plants to the ground in late winter after flowers have gone to seed. ******************************************************************** Follow as on Instagram : darkwingsshop Like as on Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/darkwingstheshop Take a look at our new shop : https://www.etsy.com/shop/darkwingsshop ********************************************************************* All seeds in my shop are from my organic garden here in Greece. * I give a lot of time and effort to keep you all satisfied so PLEASE READ THE SHOP POLICIES before you purchase something from my shop.
