Winter Hardiness Zones: Z5 - Z8.
Location: sunny or slightly shaded spots, or between other plants in a sunny spot. Moisture-loving.
Care: at the end of flowering, the stems must be cut at the root so that the next year the number of peduncles does not decrease. It is winter-hardy, but preventive sheet mulching is desirable.
Reproduction: seeds. 1,0 g = 450 seeds.
Blooms in the first year with early sowing. At a temperature of 8-12 degrees shoots appear on the 12-16th day. Blooms in the second year. Vegetatively propagated by division in early spring and separation of basal rosettes. The distance between plants is 45-70 cm.
Use: in group plantings. Suitable for decoration of the coastal zone of reservoirs. A good candidate for cutting.
Plant together in small groups of 3 - 5 plants with Echinacea purpurea "Alba", Echinops "Arctic Glow" and Foeniculum vulgare "Purpureum"

* These perennial seeds germinate very irregulary over a long period. Lower temperatures of less than +5 °C are very effective. Seed trays should not be discarded prematurely. Constant moisture must be maintained. Do not leave in direct sunlight.
* For this bigger hard-shelled seeds, mechanical damaging of the shell is helpful for quicker swelling. One method is to grind the seed in dry sharp sand. They can also be treated for several hours in a "softener" (Polyethylenglycol 6000), which is used for the production of plastic material.
