Planting & Care

Sow Lakota Coneflower seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors in a prepared seedbed after the danger of frost has passed. Lightly cover seeds with soil, as they need light to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged until germination occurs, which typically takes 10-21 days at 65-70°F (18-21°C). Once seedlings have developed a few true leaves, thin or transplant them to their final spacing.

For best results, plant in a location with full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a deep root system. Once established, Lakota Coneflower is relatively low-maintenance and drought-tolerant. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering, or leave seed heads for winter interest and bird food.
