Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation: No specific preparation required, but soaking seeds in water for 24 hours before planting can help speed up germination.

Sowing:Â

Sow seeds indoors in trays or pots filled with a seed-starting mix. Press seeds lightly into the surface and cover with a thin layer of soil or vermiculite. Keep soil moist but not waterlogged.

Germination:Â

Germination typically occurs within 21-28 days under optimal conditions of soil moisture and temperature (around 65-75°F).

Transplanting:

When seedlings are large enough to handle and have developed several true leaves, transplant them outdoors after the last frost date. Space plants 12-18 inches apart in well-drained soil in a sunny location.

Care and Maintenance:Â

Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry periods. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms and maintain plant vigor. Red Hot Pokers are relatively drought-tolerant once established but will benefit from occasional deep watering during prolonged dry spells. In colder climates, protect the crown of the plant with mulch during winter.

Happy gardening!
