Growth habit

Chrysanthemums basically like light, and this purple Echinacea is no exception. It likes light and bears drought. If the temperature is not enough, it must not grow into the best state. They are not picky about the soil, but if they sow in a more fertile soil, they will naturally grow better, and the flowers are big and beautiful. The suitable temperature is 16-24 ℃, and it should be above 10 ℃ at night

Key points of maintenance

Illumination

As mentioned above, they prefer sunshine and can adapt to drought conditions. Their most comfortable lighting time is 14-16 hours a day, so it is very suitable for flower friends living in the south. It is best to have seven or eight weeks of high lighting. However, if planted in the north, it usually blooms in May, but it can last until September

Fertilization

After planting, Echinacea purpurea can basically use fertilizer once or twice a week, and supplement magnesium in time, so as to prevent them from being unbalanced due to nutrition. In addition, certain slow-release fertilizer can also be added during colonization, so that they can grow better within 3-5 months without lack of nutrition

Temperature

The temperature they like is also different in different stages. When they grow well, they should keep it at 16-24 ℃ and 10-16 ℃ at night, but they need a higher temperature during germination. It is best to keep it at 22-24 ℃. In this state, they can sprout in 2-4 days
