Five Spot Flowers is a prolific bloomer all spring, with a low spreading habit. It prefers full sun to dappled shade in various soil conditions.
A great item for hanging baskets. This Five Spot wildflower species will tolerate a variety of conditions and doesn't seem to care whether the soil is heavy or sandy.
However, it prefers cool weather, so if yours is very hot, try to plant your wildflower seed where it will receive some shade.
Sow Five Spot seeds directly outdoors in prepared soil in the spring when temperatures are warming. Lightly rake soil over the top of the wildflower seed. Keep Five Spot seeds moist until germination.

yes id did buy and receive bamboo seeds from you. i planted same and now cautiously await some indication the sprouting will begin. we are in northern nj where it is quite cold so i am keeping the plantings in a planter system we use for seedlings. only time luck and patience will tell the ultimate story. if the seeds come to be small plants we will replant into pots until spring and after that we are guardedly optimistic. thanks for the request and service. stewart a farber
I do not have an indoor garden so I am waiting until spring to plant. I will try planting closer to Feb or March in small pods watering with spray bottle, and slowly introduce the plants to outdoor conditions.
