How to grow Coneflower 'Tomato Soup'

  • 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 Tomato Soup is thought of as half hardy, so it will require protection in frosts and low temperatures. Try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 6.0 and 8.0 as Tomato Soup likes to be in weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil.

Growing Tomato Soup from seed

Sow at a depth of approx. 0.2 inches (0.5 cm) and aim for a distance of at least 1.95 feet (60.0 cm) between Coneflower plants. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 25°C / 77°F to ensure good germination.

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

Transplanting Tomato Soup

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