- There are so many lovely varieties of Coneflowers out there, but they all pretty much have the same requirements when growing them. So in this video, we highlight how to grow Echinacea Coneflowers from Spring to Winter, so that you know what to expect and what to do in each of the seasons. These short lived perennials may not live a long time, but while they do, they grace the garden with richly colored blossoms, as well as lots of food for our favorite pollinators and birds. These plants should be a part of any perennial garden or pollinator garden. They are also native to North America which is another great thing about them! #daisies #pollinators #nativeplants

I like to keep the flower heads on my echinacea in winter as well. It looks so pretty in the snow and the birds have something to eat during the winter.
They can live for many more years then that. You just have to divide them every 4 or 5 years.
Echinacea purperea is Excellent Natural Medicine. Roots and all. Thanks for sharing, especially the fact that they live 3 to 4 years. ❤
Why won’t you ever answer me if you’re single😢
I have them growing in abundance, I was not sure I would like that, they are pretty until they are not. My tallest was about 4ft. Very profuse and nature appreciates them too
I had good luck aggressively separating my echinaceas every few years; really enjoyed seeing the few original plants spread throughout my yard over and over again in every sunny spot
Echinacea, what a beautiful plant. I keep mine in a container. I put them in my green house during the winter. They are very happy in there. Devin you are right, they love the sun, but keep them hydrated!!!
how can i grow cone flowers from seed? tried several times, never worked, any tips?
Looks like you have some kind of cultivar of coneflower. I have hundreds of straight species of echinacea and I don’t have to do squat for them. Deer don’t touch them, I don’t have to ever water them(zone 7 southern VA where it gets real hot) and I’ve had them for almost ten years now. I also never prune them as they keep flowering all summer and fall. My cultivar echinacea do need pampering though.
We have an explosion of bunnies in my neighborhood, so all my herbs are in pots. Does anyone know if bunnies chew on cone flowers also? Thanks so much 😊
One of my gardens at my house is an all-white garden, and I planted a variety of Echinacea with white blooms called "Pow Wow" which I love because unlike most other varieties of white Echinacea, the blooms on the Pow Wow variety are pure, snow white rather than the more cream-colored blooms on other so-called "white" varieties. My Pow Wow's remind me of little clouds every time I look at them. I love them!
I have Hello from zone 7B/8A, NC,. I’ve had my Walmart or Sam’s purchased echinacea 6 years in a 15-20 gallon pot.

Great video! About 2-3 weeks ago we transplanted three Artisan Red Ombre Coneflowers that are about three years old. They adapted to the new space very quickly and all have tons of flower buds! However, one of them already has one flower and to my surprise the bloom is yellow instead of red! I'm guessing this has something to do with cross pollination from my Cheyanne Spirit Coneflowers I have in another location in my yard. I'm just not sure how this works though. Will my plant now only have yellow blooms and is this permanent?
What is the groundcover around the echinacea? Is that some sort of sedum?
So... What do I do if more than one of mine are dying from root rot. Others are doing great while some start dying. I've even seen this on some that survived the winter just to shoot new small leaves and then completely wilt and rot away. I barely watered them this year too. And surprisingly, this year was not a wet winter. I'm suspecting fungus issues.
