| I have an event coming up at my house. can I fertilize agastashe and echinacia hybrids or will it be too much for them? they are new and I want to stimulate growth. |

| As for the Echinacea at this time of year you want root growth not to push top growth if you want them to overwinter. Not really heavy feeders , try some bone meal. If just planted you could try some Quickstart. |

| Here's an idea: When we had a big back yard event, I purchased new plants in bloom a day or two before and set them out in the garden for color. They went well with the foliage of my bedding plants that weren't in bloom at the time.. I even bought flowering plants in the party color themehat won't grow in my yard as center pieces just for a touch of color Then I gave them away to my helpers.
