Cultivation Instructions:

  1. Planting: Sow the seeds in well-draining soil in a sunny location. For best results, soak the seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting to enhance germination. Plant the seeds 1/2 inch deep and water lightly.

  2. Watering: Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged during the germination period, which typically takes 10-15 days. Once established, reduce watering frequency as the plant is drought-tolerant.

  3. Sunlight: Plant in full sun for optimal growth and flowering. The Mexican Red Bird of Paradise thrives in hot, sunny environments.

  4. Maintenance: Prune lightly to maintain the desired shape and remove any dead or damaged branches. Fertilize sparingly, as excessive nutrients can reduce flowering.

  5. Hardiness: Suitable for USDA Zones 8-11. In cooler climates, grow as an annual or bring plants indoors during winter.
