How to care for Echinacea SunSeekers Sweet Fuchsia (PBR) (SunSeekers Series):
When planting, incorporate some well-rotted garden compost or manure and some mycorrhizal fungi into the planting hole. Once, established, lift and divide congested clumps in autumn or spring. Leave the flower heads for winter interest and as a food source for wildlife. In late winter/early spring cut back all dead flower stems to the ground and then mulch with organic matter.
Please note:
This perennial dies back to below ground level each year in autumn, then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
