Planting Tips:

• Full sun.

• Plant seeds directly in the garden or start indoors for an earlier start.
• Plant in the garden after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has begun to warm, typically a couple of weeks after the last frost date.
• Cover seed.
• 3-5 days to germinate.

Keep the Blooms Coming:

• Harvest the blooms when fully mature.
• Make the first harvest cut above the bottom two side shoots, this establishes a branching habit for the season.
• Make future cuts at the base of the stem.
