Echinops ritro - Blue Globe Thistle

Blue Globe Thistle is one of our favorite flowers to use in fresh flower bouquets, in flower crowns, or dried and used in dried flower bouquets. The gorgeous true blue color and fun, pokey texture makes them even more valuable to grow in the cut flower garden.

Seed Starting Directions:

For earlier blooms, start seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before last frost, or directly outdoors in late spring. If starting indoors, place seeds on top of seed starting medium and lightly cover with vermiculite, keeping growing area around 70 degrees F. Do not fully cover the seed as light is required for germination. Mist or bottom water to avoid covering the seed. Seeds will germinate in about 14 to 21 days. Transplant seedlings outdoors after 4 leaves have set and plants have had an opportunity to harden off.
