Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Stratify the seeds by placing them in a moist paper towel in a plastic bag and refrigerating them for 4-6 weeks before planting. This cold treatment helps break dormancy and improves germination rates.

Sowing:

Sow the seeds indoors in early spring or outdoors in late fall.

Plant seeds in prepared soil that is well-drained and amended with compost for fertility.

Press seeds lightly into the soil surface and cover with a thin layer of soil.

Germination:

Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during germination, which typically takes 2-3 weeks.

Provide a warm, sunny location for indoor sowing or ensure the outdoor soil remains consistently cool during the stratification period.

Transplanting:

Transplant seedlings into larger containers or directly into their permanent outdoor location once they have developed several sets of true leaves.

Space plants 2-3 feet apart to allow for adequate air circulation and growth.

Care and Maintenance:

Water newly planted seedlings regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods.

Prune Spiraea 'Garnet 'n' Gold' lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage new growth.

Mulch around plants to help retain moisture and suppress weed growth.

Happy Gardening!
