Planting Instructions: 

Seed Preparation:

Before planting, soak the seeds in lukewarm water for 24 hours to help soften the seed coat and encourage germination.

Sowing:

Plant the seeds indoors in trays or pots filled with well-draining potting soil, approximately 1/4 inch deep. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Germination:

Germination typically occurs within 7-14 days when kept in a warm (70-75°F) and well-lit area. Once the seedlings have emerged, provide ample sunlight or artificial light to encourage healthy growth.

Transplanting:

Once the seedlings have developed several sets of true leaves and all risk of frost has passed, transplant them into larger containers or directly into the garden. Space the plants 12-18 inches apart to allow for adequate air circulation.

Care and Maintenance:

Water regularly, keeping the soil evenly moist but not soggy.
Prune the plants regularly to maintain their shape and encourage bushier growth.
Remove spent flowers to prolong blooming and encourage continuous flowering throughout the season.
Protect the plants from extreme temperatures and frost, as they are not frost tolerant.

Happy Gardening!
