The Intergalactic Krewe of Chewbacchus is indeed saving the galaxy with the native Wildflower seeds of Clasping Coneflower (Dracopis amplexicaulis). The Vampiric Council of New Orleans sub-krewe will be handing out these one of a kind treasures during the parade on January 28th. They containing NPI-donated seeds of Clasping Coneflower, one of the easiest and earliest native wildflowers that we can grow here. If you were lucky enough to receive these gems from your local parading vampire, simply scatter your seeds onto the soil, or into your garden in a sunny spot as soon as possible and enjoy the beautiful flowers and many pollinators that will visit them!
