Planting Instructions:

1. Seed Preparation: Begonia seeds are fine and do not require special treatment. Handle them gently to prevent loss.

2. Sowing:

   • Start indoors 8-12 weeks before the last frost date.
   • Fill seed trays or small pots with sterile seed-starting mix.
   • Sprinkle seeds thinly on the surface. Do not cover, as they need light to germinate.
   • Lightly mist to settle the seeds.

3. Germination:

   • Cover with a clear plastic cover or plastic wrap to maintain humidity.
   • Place in a warm, indirect light spot with a temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C).
   • Keep soil moist but not waterlogged. Germination takes 14-21 days.

4. Transplanting:

   • Once seedlings have two true leaves, transplant them into individual pots.
   • Harden off by gradually exposing to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days.
   • Transplant into the final location after frost danger has passed, spacing 8-12 inches apart.

5. Care and Maintenance:

   • Water regularly, ensuring the soil is moist but not waterlogged.
   • Deadhead spent flowers to promote continuous blooming.
   • Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
   • Keep begonias in cooler temperatures and protect from direct sunlight.
