Planting Instructions

Seed Preparation:

Scarify the seeds by gently nicking or sanding the seed coat to allow water absorption.

Soak the seeds in warm water for 24-48 hours to soften the seed coat.

Sowing:

Fill seed trays or pots with a high-quality seed starting mix.

Sow the seeds 1 inch deep into the soil.

Space seeds at least 2-3 inches apart.

Germination:

Place the seed trays or pots in a warm location with temperatures between 70-75°F (21-24°C).

Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Germination should occur within 2-3 weeks.

Transplanting:

Once the seedlings have at least two sets of true leaves and the risk of frost has passed, they are ready for transplanting.

Transplant the seedlings into the garden, spacing them 18-24 inches apart.

Ensure the planting hole is large enough to accommodate the root system.

Care and Maintenance:

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

Mulch around the plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.

Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming.

At the end of the growing season, cut back the foliage and protect the rhizomes with mulch if you live in a colder climate.
