FAQ about Coneflower – Classic

What kind of soil suits coneflowers best?
Coneflowers thrive in full sun in well-drained, moderately fertile soil with a pH of 6.0-7.5. They cope well with poor soil and dry spells, but dislike heavy, wet clay, especially in winter.
How often should coneflowers be watered?
Water regularly in the first season while the plant establishes. After that, coneflowers are drought-tolerant and only need watering in long dry spells. Overwatering is a more common problem than drought.
Should coneflowers be deadheaded?
Deadheading prolongs flowering into autumn. Towards the end of the season, leave some seed heads standing, as they look decorative in winter and birds love the seeds. Cut the stems down in early spring.
Which pests and diseases can affect coneflowers?
Coneflowers are generally robust. Slugs and snails can eat the young shoots in spring, and aphids and powdery mildew appear occasionally. Good air circulation and a sunny spot prevent most problems.
Are coneflowers hardy?
Yes, the purple coneflower is a hardy perennial, provided the soil is well-drained. Young plants can be short-lived in wet soil. Divide large clumps every three to four years in spring.
