Coneflower 'harvest moon'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to apply water fairly sparingly. Keep in mind when planting that harvest moon is thought of as half hardy, so it will need cloching or fleece protection when the temperature dips. harvest moon tends to grow best in a soil ph of between 6.0 and 8.0 meaning it does best in weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil.

Look to ensure a distance 1.95 feet (60.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 0.0 inches (0.01 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 25°C / 77°F to ensure good germination.

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

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