These perennial flowers bring a relaxed, naturalistic feel to borders, cottage gardens, and meadow plantings, and their daisy-like form pairs well with ornamental grasses and other sun-loving perennials. Coneflowers are also a familiar sight in pollinator-friendly landscapes, where their raised cones and open petals are easy for many beneficial insects to visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrown from seed, Soft Orange Coneflower offers an economical way to establish a long-lived perennial display. Plants typically form upright clumps of green foliage and bloom over a long summer-to-fall window once established. The flowers are suitable for garden beds, cutting gardens, and mixed perennial borders, and the seed heads can be left standing for winter interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePlant Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerennial coneflower with soft orange to peach-toned petals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaisy-like blooms with prominent raised cones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpright clump-forming growth habit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong summer-to-fall bloom period once established\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWell suited to borders, meadow gardens, and cutting gardens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGrowing Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Echinacea spp.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Herbaceous perennial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSunlight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun to light shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained garden soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate; allow soil to dry slightly between waterings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright, clump-forming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom Season:\u003c\/strong\u003e Summer to fall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Space plants about 12 to 18 inches apart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSow coneflower seeds indoors in a moist, well-drained seed-starting mix, pressing the seeds lightly into the surface and covering them only thinly, as light can aid germination. Keep the medium evenly moist but not soggy and provide warmth and bright light. Germination can be uneven, so be patient and avoid discarding the tray too early. Once seedlings have developed several true leaves and danger of frost has passed, harden them off gradually before transplanting into a sunny garden spot with well-drained soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater newly transplanted coneflowers regularly during their first season to help them establish. Once established, they are generally fairly drought tolerant, though they perform best with occasional deep watering during dry spells. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering, or leave some seed heads in place for winter interest and bird activity. In cold climates, a light layer of mulch around the plants in late fall can help protect the crowns over winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e50 Soft Orange Coneflower seeds (Echinacea) for planting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49712594845793,"sku":"seed - coneflower seeds-595","price":14.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/0796\/7073\/files\/download_b1572554-67a4-48cd-9f92-8d193b0b7980.jpg?v=1793072344","url":"https:\/\/8storeseedsejahtera.store\/products\/50-soft-orange-coneflower-seeds-echinacea-perennial-flower-seeds-for-planting","provider":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
