Erigeron is easy to grow from flower seeds, and once it is established, it is versatile and hardy. Avoid excessive watering. This flower needs a few days between one watering and the other. Watering deeply with a bucket of water every two to three weeks is plenty of water for this plant. Deadhead plants to extend blooming period.
Erigeron Speciosus Macranthus should be planted where it gets at least a few hours each day of sunlight. During the fall/winter months, you don’t need to worry about minimum temperatures. In fact, Erigeron can bear temperatures a few degrees below zero. If temperatures get even colder than zero, you can protect the plant by covering its roots with dry leaves or straw.
Sow Erigeron seeds indoors 4 – 6 weeks before last frost. Use sterile starter mix and sow the flower seeds onto the mix. Do not cover the seeds because they do need light for germination.
