How to grow Coneflower 'Virgin'

  • Full Sun

  • Low

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to apply water fairly sparingly. Virgin is generally regarded as a half hardy plant, so it will need protecting in periods of cold weather. Virgin needs a soil ph of 6.0 to 8.0 (weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil).

Growing Virgin from seed

Aim to sow 0.2 inches (0.5 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 1.95 feet (60.0 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 25°C / 77°F.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Virgin about 56 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Virgin

Virgin is half hardy, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
