Planting & Care Instructions:

1. Seed Preparation & Sowing:
   • Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost or sow directly outdoors after the last frost date.
   • Sow seeds about 1/4 inch deep in a well-draining, moist seed-starting mix.
   • Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged and maintain a temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C) for germination, which usually takes 7-14 days.
2. Transplanting & Growth:
   • Once the seedlings are large enough to handle and all danger of frost has passed, transplant them outdoors.
   • Space plants 6-8 inches apart to allow them to spread and grow comfortably.
   • Rain lilies do best in full sun but can tolerate partial shade, especially in hotter climates.
3. Maintenance:
   • Water moderately, allowing the soil to dry out between watering. Rain lilies prefer soil that is not too wet but still moist.
   • Fertilize every 4-6 weeks with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer to promote healthy growth and abundant blooms.
   • Deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms, and remove any damaged or yellowing foliage to maintain plant health.
4. Winter Care:
   • In colder climates (zones 7 and below), treat rain lilies as an annual or dig up bulbs and store them indoors during the winter months.
   • In warmer climates (zones 8-10), rain lilies are typically perennial and will come back year after year.
