--------------------------------------

This is a tall, taprooted plant bearing beautiful composiote flowers with drooping ray flowers and white pollen adorning the conehead. These are far more exquisite than any hybridized Echinaceas. The stems are tall and winsome, with the oversized coneheads swinging freely even in the slightest wind.

Sowing instructions: Sow at 20-24C on the surface of a good seed sowing mix and cover with a very fine sprinkling of sowing mix or vermiculite. Ensure the mix is damp but not wet and seal inside a plastic bag until after germination, which usually takes 10-21 days.

Planting instructions: part shade on ordinary well drained soil. Flowering is prolonged if flower stalks are cut off as soon as the flowers fade.
