Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Stratify seeds by placing them in a moist paper towel, inside a plastic bag, and refrigerating for 4-6 weeks. This cold treatment helps break dormancy and improves germination rates.

Sowing:

After stratification, sow seeds indoors 10-12 weeks before the last expected frost date.
Use a well-draining seed-starting mix and sow seeds 1/8 inch deep.
Maintain a soil temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C) for optimal germination.

Germination:

Seeds typically germinate within 3-4 weeks under optimal conditions.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period.

Transplanting:

Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost date, when the soil has warmed and seedlings have developed a few sets of true leaves.
Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week.
Plant seedlings 12-18 inches apart in well-prepared garden beds or containers.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the growing season. Avoid waterlogging, as Alstroemeria does not tolerate soggy conditions.
Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
Support: Taller varieties may require staking or support to keep the stems upright.
Pruning: Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. Cut back foliage to ground level in late fall after the first frost.
