Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
Stratification (Optional): For better germination rates, you can stratify the seeds by placing them in a damp paper towel inside a plastic bag and refrigerating for 1-2 weeks before planting.
Sowing:
Timing: Sow seeds in early spring after the last frost, or in fall for a spring bloom.
Location: Choose a site with full sun to partial shade.
Soil Preparation: Loosen the soil to a depth of 6-8 inches and remove any weeds or debris.
Sowing Depth: Scatter seeds on the surface of the soil and lightly press them in. Do not cover with more than 1/8 inch of soil as they need light to germinate.
Spacing: Space seeds about 1 inch apart. Thin seedlings to 6-12 inches apart once they have several sets of leaves.
Germination:
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water gently to avoid washing away seeds.
Temperature: Seeds will germinate in 10-14 days with soil temperatures between 55-70°F (13-21°C).
Transplanting:
Timing: Transplant seedlings outdoors after they have developed at least two sets of true leaves and the risk of frost has passed.
Spacing: Plant seedlings 6-12 inches apart to allow for proper growth and air circulation.
