  • Hi Cangran, put those seeds on one side and will get them posted. Echinacea don't do well in my garden for some reason but I grew E Paradoxa from seed this year quite easily. Whether I can keep them as plants is another matter!

    Wearside, England.

    vic echinacea is a pain in the bum to grow for me too, i find it best to grow it in a clay pot with a very free draining soil, i also have to use that spray stuff to keep the slugs off emimage

    Hi Perki, Lyn, Fishy 65, Grandma, Bekkie

    can you pm me your adresses and I'll sort out seeds for you.

     

    Grandma, the RHS site has a pic. the flowers are produced around the stem and the top is pale yellow and the bottom is a darker yellow. It has nice seed heads and goldfinches love them and bees love the flowers. It seeds easily and it covers the ground densely so there are no weeds near it.
