How to grow Coneflower 'Crazy Pink'

  • Full Sun

  • Low

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to apply water fairly sparingly. Keep in mind when planting that Crazy Pink is thought of as half hardy, so remember to protect this plant from frosts and low temperatures. A soil ph of between 6.0 and 8.0 is ideal for Crazy Pink as it does best in weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil.

Growing Crazy Pink from seed

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 Crazy Pink about 56 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Crazy Pink

As Crazy Pink is half hardy, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
