Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation: No specific preparation required, but soaking seeds in water for 12-24 hours before planting can help speed up germination.
Sowing:
Sow seeds directly into well-prepared soil, lightly covering them with a thin layer of soil or sand.
Germination:
Germination typically occurs within 10-21 days under optimal conditions of soil moisture and temperature (around 65-75°F).
Transplanting:
Aethionema Grandiflorum is best sown directly where it is to grow, but if starting indoors, use biodegradable pots to minimize root disturbance during transplanting.
Care and Maintenance:
Keep the soil consistently moist during the germination period. Once seedlings emerge, thin them to allow proper spacing between plants (about 6-8 inches apart). Water regularly but allow the soil to dry out between watering to prevent root rot. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Prune spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. Protect from excessive wet conditions, especially in winter.
