Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Stratification: To break dormancy, mix the seeds with a moistened medium like sand or peat moss. Place them in a sealed plastic bag.

Cold Treatment: Store the bag in the refrigerator for 90 days. Check periodically to ensure the medium remains moist.

Sowing:

Timing: Sow seeds indoors in early spring.

Containers: Use seed trays or small pots filled with a well-draining seed-starting mix.

Depth: Sow seeds about 1/4 inch deep in the soil.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Germination:

Temperature: Maintain a temperature of 65-70°F (18-21°C).

Timeframe: Germination typically takes 2-4 weeks. Be patient, as some seeds may take longer to sprout.

Transplanting:

Timing: Once seedlings have at least two sets of true leaves and the risk of frost has passed, they are ready to be transplanted.

Location: Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil.

Spacing: Plant seedlings 4-6 feet apart to allow ample room for growth.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Water young plants regularly to establish roots. Mature plants are drought-tolerant but benefit from occasional watering during dry periods.

Mulching: Apply mulch around the base of the plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.

Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead or diseased wood and to shape the plant.

Happy Gardening!
