BLACK EYED SUSAN
APPROXIMATE SEED COUNT PER PACKAGE: 40
All seed was grown in an open pollinated environment & harvested by hand here at Barefoot Ridge.
We cleaned, sorted and packaged all with care so you can share in the magic of growing all of these beautiful plants next season!
When to plant: Plant seeds in early spring when the soil temperature is around 70° F. You can also sow seeds in late summer or fall, or even in the winter in mild climates.
Cold stratification: To improve germination, you can cold stratify the seeds by mixing them with moist sand or a paper towel and placing them in a sealed bag in the fridge for about six weeks.
How to plant: Sow seeds directly on the soil's surface, pressing them down lightly and leaving them uncovered. You can plant seeds closer together to prevent the plants from spreading.
Where to plant: Black-eyed Susan’s grow best in full sun but can tolerate partial shade. They can thrive in many types of soil, including clay.
Watering: Water seeds lightly after sowing. Container-grown plants may need more frequent watering.
Staking: Taller varieties may need staking to provide support. You can use a stake and twine, or weave a lattice around the stems.
Deadheading: Remove dead or wilted flowers to encourage the plant to regrow and bloom again.
Fertilizing: Fertilize container-grown plants once a year in the spring. You can also use a slow-release organic fertilizer to keep the soil active.
