LWS Purple Coneflower Rudbeckia For Garden Planting 200 Seeds Fast Shipping Instructions: 1. Prepare Soil: Choose well-draining soil. Rudbeckias tolerate a wide range of soil types but prefer fertile soil with good drainage. Loosen the soil to a depth of at least 6-8 inches and remove any rocks or debris. 2. Start Indoors (Optional): For earlier blooms, start rudbeckia seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost date. Use seed trays or pots filled with seed-starting mix. 3. Plant Seeds: Sow rudbeckia seeds on the soil surface and press them lightly into the soil. Rudbeckias need light to germinate, so do not cover the seeds. Water gently after planting. 4. Provide Sunlight: Rudbeckias prefer full sun. Choose a location that receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. 5. Maintain Moisture: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water from the bottom of seed trays to avoid disturbing seeds. 6. Transplant: Once rudbeckia seedlings have developed true leaves and the danger of frost has passed, transplant them into the garden. Space seedlings 12-18 inches apart, depending on the variety. 7. Watering: Water rudbeckia plants regularly, especially during dry periods. Once established, they are somewhat drought-tolerant but perform best with regular watering. 8. Fertilize (Optional): Apply a balanced fertilizer or compost in early spring to promote healthy growth and flowering. Follow package instructions for dosage. 9. Deadhead (Optional): Remove spent flowers (deadheading) to encourage continuous blooming throughout the growing season.
