Planting Instructions

Seed Preparation

Stratification:

For better germination, seeds can benefit from a cold stratification process. Place seeds in a damp paper towel inside a plastic bag and refrigerate for 2-4 weeks.

Pre-soaking:

Alternatively, soak seeds in water for 12-24 hours before sowing to enhance germination rates.

Sowing

Indoor Sowing:

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost.

Fill seed trays or pots with a sterile seed-starting mix.
Sow seeds on the surface and cover lightly with a thin layer of soil.
Mist the soil surface to keep it moist but not waterlogged.

Outdoor Sowing:

Direct sow seeds in the garden after the last frost.
Prepare the garden bed by loosening the soil and removing weeds.
Sow seeds on the surface and cover lightly with soil.
Water gently to settle the soil and keep it moist.

Germination

Temperature: Ideal germination temperature is between 18-24°C (65-75°F).
Timeframe: Seeds typically germinate within 14-21 days under optimal conditions.
Light: Provide bright, indirect light for indoor seedlings. Outdoors, ensure they receive full sun to partial shade.

Transplanting

Timing: Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and they have at least two sets of true leaves.
Spacing: Plant seedlings 15-20 cm (6-8 inches) apart in the garden or container.
Depth: Plant at the same depth as they were in their seedling pots.

Care and Maintenance

Watering: Water regularly, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering frequency once plants are established.
Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
Deadheading: Remove spent flowers to encourage continued blooming
