Hold off on those pruning shears, friends! Ken Lain, the Top 10 Gardener, here with a tip to turn your spent summer blooms into a vibrant autumn display.
Echinacea, or coneflower, is a superstar in the fall garden. These tall perennials boast stunning flowers all summer long, and guess what? They keep shining well into autumn!
Here's the magic: Instead of deadheading (removing spent flowers), let your Echinacea go to seed. The seed heads transform into striking tan structures with dark centers. They're beautiful on their own and provide a valuable food source for migrating birds.
Double bonus: By letting your Echinacea seed, you're helping it multiply naturally. Those seeds will spread and create even more cheerful blooms next year!
Here's the Ken Lain timeline:
- October: Leave your Echinacea seed heads standing tall. They may brown a bit, but they'll still be attractive.
- November (or later): If the seed heads become unsightly, cut them back. But leave them standing until winter harshens.
- Spring: Enjoy a new generation of Echinacea springing up from the "mother plant" and the scattered seeds.
Autumn is prime planting time! There's still plenty of season left to add Echinacea or other colorful perennials to your yard. Visit Watters Garden Center for a fantastic selection and expert advice.
Let's keep those fall gardens blooming!
