Planting & Care

Sow Hot Coral Coneflower seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Lightly press seeds into the soil surface; they need light to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Germination typically occurs in 10-21 days at temperatures around 70°F. Once seedlings have developed several true leaves, transplant them outdoors after hardening off.

Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help plants establish. Once established, coneflowers are relatively low-maintenance and drought tolerant. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming, or leave seed heads for winter interest and bird food.
