Planting Instructions

Seed Preparation

No special preparation is needed. However, soaking seeds in water for a few hours before planting can speed up germination.

Sowing

Direct Sowing:

Sow seeds outdoors after the last frost date.

Plant seeds 1/4 inch (6 mm) deep in well-prepared soil.

Space seeds about 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart to allow for mature plant size.

Indoor Sowing:

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost.

Use seed trays or pots filled with seed starting mix.

Sow seeds 1/4 inch (6 mm) deep and keep the soil moist.

Germination

Temperature   : Maintain a temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C) for optimal germination.

Time           : Seeds typically germinate in 10-14 days.

Light           : Provide plenty of light for indoor seedlings, either from a sunny window or grow lights.

Transplanting

Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost when they are large enough to handle and have at least two sets of true leaves.

Space plants 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart in well-drained soil in a sunny location.

Care and Maintenance

Watering      : Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid waterlogging.

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

Pruning        : Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming and to keep the plants tidy.
