Erigeron has spread all over my front drive - in every little joint. I hate having to weed them out but it has to be done,

""I'll start with Echinacea - I have the pink one but would like more""
I have tried these before but they don't do as well as rudbeckia for me - I'm thinking of trying them elsewhere in the garden so maybe will be a little more robust. I have just found your pink seeds and I've also got some white ones - how well do they flower in their first year?

VC, does your echinacea come back reliably every year? I've sown seeds of yours - an older swap - germination has been really good. But I've never had much luck with them, they give a few flowers in the first year never to return.
Started earlier this year so hopefully I'll get a few more blooms.

It flowered this year and has done every year since I saved the seeds.
