Description

Bright upright plants, coneflowers
are a North American perennial in the Daisy family (Asteraceae). They grow 2 to 4 feet in height with dark green
foliage. They are fast growers and self-sow their seed profusely. These
midsummer bloomers can flower from midsummer through fall frost!  Coneflowers
have raised cone-like centers (hence, the name) which contain seeds that
attract butterflies. Leave the seed heads after bloom and you’ll also
attract songbirds! 

Trouble-free,
coneflowers are drought-tolerant, once established. They can take the
heat!  As native plants with prickly stems, they are more
deer-resistant than most flowering plants. 

Growing Coneflower From Seeds

Dampen a Paper Towel

Fold a paper towel in half. Sprinkle it with
water until it’s barely damp but not soggy.

Treat the Seeds

Sprinkle the coneflower seeds on one-half of
the paper towel. Fold the towel in half so the seeds are between two layers of
moist towel. Seal the towel in a plastic bag and keep it in the refrigerator
for eight to 12 weeks. This cold treatment mimics winter conditions and helps
the seeds break dormancy so they can germinate.

Prep the Pots

Fill 8-inch-deep seedling pots with moistened
potting soil. Coneflowers need extra-deep pots because they develop very long
taproots.

Sow the Seeds

Sow two coneflower seeds in each pot, covering
them with only a thin sprinkling of soil, and allow the pots to drain.

Cover the Pots

Cover the pots with clear plastic to retain
moisture and keep the pots in a warm room to germinate.

Remove the Bag

Remove the bag once the seeds sprout and
provide the seedlings with full sunlight. Water the plants when the soil
surface dries.

Transplant the Seedlings

Move the coneflowers outside once they produce
their second set of true leaves and after average nighttime temperatures are
above 55 degrees Fahrenheit. Transplant them to a full-sun, well-drained
perennial bed.

Water the Coneflowers

Provide coneflowers with approximately 1 inch
of water a week during the growing season. Apply up to 1 inch of compost around
each plant in spring to replenish the nutrients in the soil.

Store Policies

All seeds will come in a resalable
plastic zip lock bag and placed in a bubble envelope so the seeds are not
damaged by shipping machines. All seed packets contain no fillers or other
weeds or seeds mixed in. Most have been harvested by hand & all test at a
high germination rate.

Seed Information

We guarantee
that all seed orders will contain the quantity ordered. Unlike many sellers who
sell seeds by weight, all seed our counts are almost always correct, as the
seeds are packaged and counted by hand. Seed packages are all double checked to
insure accuracy. We do our best and will often add extra seeds.

We are a seller that caters to
experienced gardeners. (germination and plant care information is readily
available online. Most of our listings include germination instructions, so we
do not ship growing instructions.

All My Seeds Are Sold Fresh So You Can Plant them Anytime within 2
years from Purchase

***Note: It is normal for tropical seed germination to be sporadic
from as little as 30 days to 6 months or more- so patience is required. Buyers
should do their own research for plant uses if needed.

BE PREPARED – Some Seed can be somewhat difficult to germinate – much
patience and time may be required – please don’t be wondering why the seeds
have not germinated after short periods of time. This is normal. Several months
will be needed for some seed.

Some seeds require some experience
in growing. We provide germination guidance and recommend that you do some
research before ordering if you feel unsure. Growing plants from seed is
supposed to be fun. Sometimes it is successful and sometimes not- this is the
way it is with gardening. Because we are not there to plant them, we cannot be
responsible for germination failure due to improper planting or climate
conditions. We will always send you viable seeds

Seed is a
live product which depends on many important grower skills such as proper
planting time, seed depth, type of soil, watering, light intensity, proper use
of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, soil conditions, and
reasonable weather during the growing period. These factors are totally out of
the sellers control, and germination and growing results are the buyer’s
responsibility and risk.
