I was performing at a private function and noticed the distinctive purple-pink colour of the Echinacea flowers. I conveniently arranged another gig a few weeks later to collect the seed. Purple Coneflower aka Echinacea, is a robust, drought-tolerant perennial and one of the very best butterfly attractors you can plant! Our local Bumble Bee population like it too! Blooming profusely for up to two months in summer, striking flowers are arranged individually on upright stems with soft purple petals surrounding an iridescent red-orange, cone shaped centre. Echinacea purpurea is excellent for cut flower arrangements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e50 seeds per packet \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e R\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eequires cold stratification before seeding.

Also a great companion plant for tomatoes, cucumbers and Brassicas.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e25 seeds per packet \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e Start indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date.

We have selected a few choice plants and are offering the seed from this heirloom variety of what we believe is ‘Victoria’ Rhubarb. This assumption and diagnostics confirmed after a most historically intriguing chat with a valley old-timer who was ‘purty darun sure’ that the rhubarb planted on our farm would have dated back to the 1870’s and furthermore, it could only be old Victoria at that time. Joseph Myatt introduced this variety in England in the 1830’s in honour of the Queen! ‘Long to reign over us’ indeed, this rhubarb has survived many decades here on the North Mountain of Nova Scotia, likely sown by the Bent family who homesteaded this farm in the late 1850's. This is a super sweet variety, therefore less sugar needs to be added in baking and cooking pies and cobblers.

This herbaceous perennial is the most commonly cultivated variety noticeable in gardens across North America. Often referred to as 'Dusky Crane’s Bill', this geranium species thrives in the shade and in the understory of wild spaces. Pure stands can often be found in woodland areas, not surprising since the plant is native to the meadows and woodlands of Eurasia. Plants reach 18-30 inches in height and bloom in late spring to summer, typically May to August in most regions.
