Happy Star Coneflower Care
This perennial plant thrives in hardiness zones three through eight, making it very hardy. It can tolerate either full or partial sun. This coneflower prefers moist, well drained soil but also thrives in dry soil as well. This is due to its drought tolerant nature. It does enjoy an average amount of water, so best if possible to water after a long dry stretch is observed.
If you don’t wish for the plant to reseed, flower heads will need to be cut back in the fall. Flowers can be removed to prolong blooming.
Happy Star Coneflower Spacing
The Happy Star Coneflower is tall in nature, growing 36 to 48 inches high. It reseeds easily, so should be spaced 18 to 24 inches apart.
