Key Features

– Certified Organic: Our Purple Coneflower seeds have been rigorously tested and certified organic by the Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (MOFGA), ensuring they meet the highest standards for organic cultivation.

– High Germination Rate: With a germination trial success of over 90%, these seeds are primed for planting, offering you a flourishing start to your butterfly garden.

Germination Instructions

For best results, stratify your Purple Coneflower seeds for 4-6 weeks before planting. This can be achieved by mixing the seeds with moist sand and storing them in a refrigerator. This process mimics natural winter conditions, encouraging successful germination. After stratification, sow seeds 1/8 inch deep in a seed-starting mix. Keep the soil moist and expect germination in 10-15 days at 70°F.

Planting Instructions

Purple Coneflower thrives in USDA Zones 3-9, preferring full sun to partial shade. Choose a location with well-draining soil and space seedlings about 18-24 inches apart. Regular watering during the first growing season will help establish a robust root system. As a drought-tolerant plant, mature coneflowers will thrive with minimal care, attracting pollinators and providing a valuable food source for butterflies.

By choosing Johnny Butterflyseed’s Certified Organic Purple Coneflower Seeds, you’re not only beautifying your garden but also contributing to the preservation of native flora and fauna. These flowers provide essential nectar for pollinators and serve as host plants for butterfly larvae, playing a crucial role in the ecological web.
