I am giving a tray of these away to someone I know because I have so many. I started both white swan and baby white swan from seed. Unfortunately, because I have moved everything around so many times as I was bringing them out to plant this spring, I have mixed the two and don't know which is which! One should be about 36", and the other around 20".
I'll take them !!!! I don't care !!! I'm leaving tomarrow for 5 days then I'll be home d-mail me for info

Pennefeather, On a Victory Garden rerun on PBS today, they showed a stand of these coneflowers. I think they must have been the taller ones. They were absolutely glorious.
Pam,
If I had any additional energy, I would have kept the coneflowers and planted them myself. The problem that I run into is that I have been actively working in my garden since April, and I have just run out of steam. After doubling the size of one bed, and increasing the size of three others, I just don't have it in my to start another new bed in this heat. Maybe if it was still cooler...
I think that I am going to start some more White Swan next spring to ring a tree in my backyard. However, I am going to prepare the bed this fall so that I just have to pop them in come springtime.
I bet that bed on Victory Garden was beautiful.
Penne, I know what you mean about the heat. I can't believe after all the cold and windy weather earlier this year, I am already telling DH we'll enlarge the beds come fall. Well, as far as I'm concerned, age has its privileges. My copy of Cottage Living magazine came and I've been oggling all the eye candy in those gardens. Julie Newmar's garden is shown, and it's so lovely, so personal. I'll probably do more mag article surfing than actual digging for awhile.
