Coneflower "Alan's Pride"
Cone-Flower "Alan's Pride".
An unpretentious, abundantly flowering plant with large inflorescences-baskets. The stems are erect, branched, 60-75 cm high. Inflorescences are 9-10 cm in diameter on long, strong peduncles.
Flowering is abundant and long-lasting: from July until the frost. Attracts butterflies. Cut flowers stay in water for a long time.
Rudbeckia prefers open, sunny places without stagnant water. They tolerate rain and wind well. They grow quickly. They are great for group plantings in flower beds and high borders. Growing in containers is also possible. It is recommended to remove overgrown flowers so that the plant forms new flowers and blooms more abundantly.
Sowing seeds for seedlings: in March-early April (shoots appear after 2 weeks). With the appearance of two pairs of true leaves, the seedlings are picked into separate pots. Hardened seedlings are planted in open ground at the end of May. It is possible to sow seeds directly into open ground in June-July, but flowering in this case will occur only in the second year (light shelter for the winter is desirable).
15 seeds will be enough for a flower bed of 4 m2.
