Planting & Care

Sow seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors in spring after danger of frost has passed. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; they need light to germinate. Keep soil moist but not waterlogged. Germination typically occurs in 10-21 days at 65-70°F (18-21°C). Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them outdoors after hardening off.

Space plants 18-24 inches apart in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a deep root system. Once established, coneflowers are drought-tolerant and require minimal care. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering, or leave seed heads for winter interest and bird food.
