Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; they need light to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge, which typically takes 10 to 21 days at 65 to 70°F. Thin seedlings to stand 12 to 18 inches apart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce established, Clasping Coneflower requires little care. Water during extended dry periods, especially in the first growing season. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering, or allow seed heads to mature for self-seeding and winter interest. Cut back old foliage in late fall or early spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e100 Clasping Coneflower seeds (Rudbeckia amplexicaulis).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67727562866998,"sku":"BOTAN4-456","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7720673174_4ehk.jpg?v=1791980957","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/clasping-coneflower-seeds-100-rudbeckia-amplexicaulis-native-yellow-wildflower-pollinator-plant","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
