Planting & Care
Sow Clasping Coneflower seeds directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, or start them indoors 4 to 6 weeks before the last frost. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not bury them deeply, as light aids germination. Keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge, then thin them to the recommended spacing.
Once established, these wildflowers need little care. Water during extended dry periods, especially while plants are young. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage more flowers, or allow some seed heads to mature for self-sowing. Clasping Coneflower grows best in full sun and well-drained soil, and it can tolerate poor to average soil conditions.
