Coneflower 'Hot Lava'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to apply water fairly sparingly. Keep in mind when planting that Hot Lava is thought of as half hardy, so remember to protect this plant from frosts and low temperatures. Ensure your soil has a ph of between 6.0 and 8.0 as Hot Lava is a weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil loving plant.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 1.95 feet (60.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.2 inches (0.5 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 25°C / 77°F to ensure good germination.

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

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Hot Lava is a half hardy plant.
