Simple steps to your first bloom

Sow After Last Frost

Plant seeds directly in well-drained soil after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. For an earlier start, sow seeds indoors 2–3 weeks before your last frost date.

Full Sun + Spacing

Choose a sunny spot with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day. Keep the soil consistently moist while they germinate and become established. Protect young seedlings from birds and rabbits.

Watch & Harvest

As blooms arrive cut at the base of the stems. Some varieties will produce additional blooms.

Keep the Blooms Coming: Plant multiple times throughout the season to provide a steady supply of fresh flowers.

Long Vase Life

Use clean, sharp snips or floral scissors and cut at the base of the stem.

Place stems immediately into a bucket of clean, room-temperature water. Move to a cool, shaded spot to let them "drink up" for a few hours before arranging.

Change vase water every 1–2 days and recut the stem ends on an angle for maximum freshness.

Use fresh cut flower food to extend the life of your flowers.

💡 Pro tip: For a nonstop supply of fresh stems, sow a new short row every 1–2 weeks through the growing season. You'll always have flowers coming in at different stages.

Seed Storage Tips

Proper seed storage helps maintain germination and keeps seeds viable for years.

Keep Seeds Cool

Store seeds in a cool location, ideally between 35–50°F (2–10°C). A refrigerator is an excellent option for long-term storage.

Keep Seeds Dry

Moisture is the biggest enemy of stored seeds. Make sure seeds are completely dry before storing and keep them in airtight containers. Adding a small silica gel packet can help absorb excess moisture.

Protect from Light

Store seeds in a dark place. Light can trigger premature aging and reduce seed viability over time.

Use Airtight Containers

Glass jars, sealed plastic containers, or moisture-proof seed storage boxes work well. Label each container clearly with the variety name and year.

Avoid Temperature Swings

Frequent changes in temperature and humidity can shorten seed life. Choose a storage location where conditions remain stable.

Bring Seeds to Room Temperature Before Opening

If storing seeds in the refrigerator, allow the container to reach room temperature before opening. This prevents condensation from forming on the seeds.

Simple Rule: Cool, dry, dark, and airtight. Following these four principles will give your seeds the best chance of staying viable for future seasons.

How can I enjoy continuous harvests?

For flowers all summer, sow a new planting every 1–2 weeks throughout the growing season.

Are these varities good for beginners?

Yes. As long as they get full sun and basic watering while young, these chosen varieties are very forgiving and quick to reach blooming stage. Perfect for first-time cut-flower gardeners.

Can I grow them in containers?

Yes, choose a deep, large container (at least 12" deep), quality potting mix, and full sun. Space plants a bit wider (8–12") in containers so each plant has enough room to reach full height.
