Planting & Care Instructions

Where to Plant

Sunlight: Plant in full sun for at least six to eight hours each day. While it tolerates light afternoon shade in very hot climates, maximum sun exposure ensures the strongest stems and the highest volume of crisp white blooms.
Soil: These hardy perennials prefer lean to average soil that drains quickly. If you have heavy clay, mix in some organic compost or plant in a raised mound to prevent the roots from sitting in soggy "wet feet" during the winter.

Watering Requirements

During the first growing season, water deeply twice a week to help the root system reach deep into the soil. Once established, PowWow® White is remarkably drought tolerant and only needs supplemental water during extended dry spells. Inconsistent watering during the budding stage can lead to smaller flowers or premature petal drop, so keep the soil moisture even until the blooms open.

Pruning Tips

This variety blooms on new wood, so you should cut the spent flower stalks back to the highest set of leaves to encourage a second flush of white petals. In late winter or very early spring, cut the entire plant back to about three inches above the ground to make way for fresh growth. Think of this annual "haircut" as a way to remove old debris and prevent any lingering fungal spores from affecting the new foliage.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a balanced, slow release fertilizer once in early spring as the new green shoots first emerge from the soil. Avoid using high nitrogen fertilizers late in the summer because this stimulates soft, leafy growth that is easily damaged by the first frost. A light layer of compost applied around the base of the plant each spring provides all the additional nutrients this native cultivar needs to thrive.

You'll love the bold look of our beautiful native Echinacea cultivars. The thick, well-formed flowers stand proudly on sturdy stems and have a long bloom time from mid-summer through fall! These plants are compact but deliver a huge amount of flower power. They feature a pronounced, high, golden-yellow cone surrounded by pure white petals.

These hardy plants perform beautifully all across the United States and support the nectar needs of butterflies. They'll have plenty of blooms to feast from!

This special variety starts blooming faster than others, but stays shorter. Try them as an icy complement to your mid-summer and fall garden. You will be cutting as many as can to bring inside for cunning little cut flower arrangements! Don't worry, they will be constantly replaced with more shining white flowers.

Be sure to leave a few of the dried flowers to dry and stand in place for wintertime. That's when the birds come a-pecking at the dried seed heads. Gain a snow-capped architectural winter feature!

PowWow® White Coneflowers are very hardy and dependable perennials. They will perform well in gardens throughout USDA planting zones 3 to 9, year after year, getting stronger and more beautiful each year! Super hardy and easy to grow, make sure that you save room for these gorgeous native plants.

Planting and Application:

Use these elegantly cheerful perennials as a wonderful foil for other colors! Try them behind colorful blooming groundcovers at the edge of your border. Try them in large exterior containers, too. Use them as a single species, or add "Spillers" to the edges of your container to soften the look.

Or, boost the look of silvery Evergreens or Ornamental Grasses with a long foreground filled with PowWow® White. They stay compact enough for the front of the landscaping bed and can be a beautiful facer plant to leggy shrubs with bare stems!

They look great in all-white Moon Gardens, too. Add to a restful palette and enjoy the respite. Their rugged form contrasts well with the rounded flower heads of Annabelle Hydrangea. For a festive prairie-style planting, add Black Eyed Susans and PowWow® Wild Berry Coneflowers. The pure white flower petals will set off the hot colors of the other flower heads like no other.

Use them as a cheerful mass planting. Space these herbaceous perennials 12 inches apart on center, measuring from the center of one to the center of the next.

Tolerating harsh locations in the sun, handling poor soil, and periodic drought, making them fantastic in the hell-strip along the road or sidewalk, in Rock Gardens, or in a Xeric garden with Prairie Grasses and other prairie wildflowers. Include them in your Fire-Wise landscaping plan!

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Give them full sun, well-drained soil, and a moderate amount of water for the very best blooms. They are very forgiving and might be a perfect plant for a new homeowner just getting started as a gardener. This delightful, sun-loving plant is winter-hardy, heat and drought-tolerant, and easy to grow!

If you've left your herbaceous perennials plantings to stand over the winter, just cut the stalks to an inch above ground level in early spring. Keep the flowers deadheaded to greatly increase the flowering. Other than that, PowWow® White Coneflowers are almost maintenance-free. Echinacea is a native species that does well in most of the country with very little care, and these cultivars are just as easy to grow.
