Grow your own immune booster with our echinacea seeds! These seeds are perfect for creating a vibrant and colorful addition to your garden, while also providing potential immune boosting health benefits.
Instructions:
We recommend using the following to sow the seeds:
Plant these seeds a quarter inch deep with 2-3 seeds 24” apart in a bright spot with regular well-draining potting mix and don’t overwater. They should germinate for you within 7-21 days and grow into mature plants within 70-84 days and grow to 2-3’ tall if grown in full sun.
(Find more info on germinating seeds by going to our seed guide)
Echinacea is a hardy plant, not requiring too much water or fertilization. Harvest the flowers and leaves, dry them out and put them in herbal teas which is great for the immune system and can help treat certain infections.
These seeds are for the 2025 growing season.
