Hello I have sucesssfully grown echinacea plants from seed this year. They are now between 8 and 12 inches tall and some are flowering. I have left them in pots in our polytunnel. When should I plant them into my garden which overlooks the Solway Firth/ Irish Sea and can be pretty windy.

I'd leave it til spring. I asked this question last year and was advised to do that. I|t survived. First echinacea to survive 2 years for me.

I think I read that they are best kept growing in pots until they are a good size before planting out.
