Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

No special preparation required. However, light scarification can be done to improve germination rates.

Sowing:

Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Use a well-draining seed-starting mix.
Sow seeds on the surface of the soil and lightly press them in, as they need light to germinate.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Germination:

Seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days under optimal conditions.
Maintain a temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C) during the germination period.

Transplanting:

Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost date when they are large enough to handle and have developed a few true leaves.
Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week.
Plant seedlings 12-18 inches apart in well-drained soil in a sunny location.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Water regularly but allow the soil to dry out between watering. Strawflowers are drought-tolerant once established.
Support: Taller varieties may need staking to support the stems, especially in windy areas.
Deadheading: Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming.

Gardening is the art that uses flowers and plants as paint, and the soil and sky as canvas.

Happy gardening!
