Sunmagic® Vintage Ruby Coneflower

Plant in spring in average, well-drained soil, spacing 18–24 inches apart. Vintage Ruby produces rich, ruby-red flowers that fade through warm tones as they age, creating an attractive vintage-toned color effect. It adapts to average garden conditions without special preparation. Water regularly for the first few weeks, then reduce as the plant becomes established.

Deadhead to encourage continuous bloom or allow seed heads for birds. Divide every three to four years in spring. No heavy fertilizing is needed. The deep ruby red tones pair beautifully with gold, bronze, and purple companions in the late summer border. Excellent for cutting — the flowers have good vase life. An outstanding nectar source for bees and butterflies throughout the blooming season.
