Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
No special preparation is required for Meconopsis Paniculata seeds. However, cold stratification (placing seeds in the refrigerator for 2-4 weeks) can help improve germination by simulating winter conditions.

Sowing:

• Indoor Sowing: 8-10 weeks before the last frost, sow seeds in a seed-starting mix. Scatter seeds on the soil surface and press gently but do not cover them, as they require light to germinate.
• Outdoor Sowing: In late summer or early fall, prepare soil by raking it to a fine texture, then scatter seeds on the soil surface.

Germination:

• Seeds typically germinate within 2-4 weeks under optimal conditions.
• Maintain a soil temperature of 60-65°F (15-18°C) for indoor sowing.
• Keep soil moist but not waterlogged during germination.

Transplanting:

• Once seedlings develop true leaves and after the last frost date, transplant them outdoors.
• If sowing indoors, harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week before transplanting.
• Space plants 12-18 inches apart in a shaded or partially shaded area.

Care and Maintenance:

• Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy. Water regularly, especially during dry periods.
• Apply mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
• Deadhead spent flowers to encourage additional blooms and prevent self-seeding.
• Monitor for pests like aphids and slugs, and use organic treatments if necessary.

Happy Gardening!
