These are the flowers they come in yellows and yellow and red and other shades. What's their name ? I had yellow only, my neighbor has the yellow and red he let me cut all the heads before they dry out. I would like to ask ? I just let them dry out in the house and then in spring just plant each head OR do I have to rub off the top of the dark head into a powder and then plant it. I have never handled these flowers they grew out of no where in my garden but I like as they grow late and last long. They seem to multiply by them selves in patches... I presume they will grow when I just plant the whole ball ? What do you think? Thanks
Could be Echinacea paradoxa. You should have luck planting the whole ball head to get seedlings. Being where you are, they may also be perennial for you - you'll have to wait and see!
Thank's Lorax. Yes now that I see the name you give and I google for photos that is the sort of "family" they are ..Good to know that I can bury the whole ball. Yes they are perrenials and I want to plant them along a path. Thank you. All the best sadly the other thread seems to have gone dead.. I don't know why but I guess some frictions for a,b,c, reasons. and I had a leaky roof that needed replacing.
