Lightly press seeds into the soil surface; do not cover deeply, as light aids germination. Keep soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 10-21 days at 65-70°F. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant to individual pots or harden off and plant outdoors after danger of frost has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a deep root system; thereafter, water during extended dry periods. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming, or leave seed heads for winter interest and bird food. Divide clumps every 3-4 years in spring or fall to maintain vigor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e50 Summer Solstice Coneflower seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49712544743521,"sku":"seed - coneflower seeds-580","price":14.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/0796\/7073\/files\/download_b9d3738f-03be-457f-90c1-8482d9afe092.jpg?v=1793072329","url":"https:\/\/8storeseedsejahtera.store\/products\/50-summer-solstice-coneflower-seeds-echinacea-perennial-flower-seeds","provider":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
