50 Strawberry & Cream Coneflower Seeds - Echinacea Perennial Flower Seeds

Strawberry & Cream Coneflower (Echinacea) is a beloved perennial flower known for its large, daisy-like blooms with a distinctive two-toned look. The petals emerge in soft shades of pink and cream, creating a warm, strawberry-and-cream effect that stands out in borders, cottage gardens, and meadow plantings. These coneflowers are a favorite for cut flower arrangements and bring long-lasting color to the summer garden.

Beyond their beauty, coneflowers are valued for their easy-going nature and their ability to attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies. Their seed heads can be left standing into fall and winter, adding seasonal interest and providing food for birds. Strawberry & Cream is a reliable choice for gardeners who want a colorful, low-maintenance perennial that returns year after year.

Planting & Care

Sow coneflower seeds indoors in a seed-starting mix, pressing them lightly into the surface and keeping the medium moist but not soggy. Some gardeners cold-stratify seeds in the refrigerator for a few weeks before sowing to help improve germination. Provide warmth and bright light, and keep the soil evenly moist until seedlings are established.

Once seedlings are large enough, transplant them into well-drained garden soil in a sunny location. Water regularly during the first season to help plants establish, then reduce watering as they mature. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering, or leave some seed heads in place for birds and winter interest.
