Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours before sowing to soften the seed coat and enhance germination.
Sowing:
Start seeds indoors in late winter or early spring. Fill seed trays or pots with a sterile seed-starting mix. Sow the seeds on the surface of the soil and lightly cover them with a thin layer of soil or vermiculite. Mist the soil gently to keep it moist.
Germination:
Place the seed trays or pots in a cold frame or a cool, shaded area with temperatures around 55-65°F (13-18°C). Germination can be slow and may take 4-8 weeks. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Once seedlings emerge, provide indirect light to promote healthy growth.
Transplanting:
When seedlings have at least two sets of true leaves and the danger of frost has passed, they can be transplanted outdoors. Harden off the seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week. Choose a location with partial to full shade and rich, moist, well-draining soil. Space the plants 18-24 inches apart to allow for mature growth.
Care and Maintenance:
Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry periods. Apply a layer of mulch around the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming and maintain plant vigor. Monitor for pests such as aphids and slugs, and treat them as necessary. In colder regions, provide winter protection by mulching around the base of the plants to insulate the roots.
Gardening is the art that uses flowers and plants as plants, and the soil and sky as canvas.
