The Plant Sentry Compliance Officer works closely with NatureHills.com and each nursery or fulfillment center to ensure only compliant plants are sold to customers.

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Plant these resilient perennials in full sun in a well-drained area to ensure they have the strongest stems and the most blooms. Coneflowers usually rebloom without deadheading, but if spent flowers are removed, this procedure will encourage continued beautiful blooms and improve their general appearance. All plants appreciate a 3-4-inch layer of arborist mulch and Nature Hills Root Booster to keep your plants stress-free.
Provide moderate, yet consistent moisture for new plants, but established Coneflowers only need supplemental waterings during prolonged heat and drought. Coneflowers rebloom without deadheading, but if spent flowers are removed, this will encourage continued beautiful blooms and improve general appearance. Divide your plants every 3-4 years to maintain vigor.
- Full Sun Perennials
- Moderate Moisture Access
- Any Well-Drained Soil & Regular Fertility
- Prune Early Spring & Deadhead For Reblooms
- Pest & Deer Resistant & Drought Tolerant
