How to Start
- Sow seeds directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, or start indoors a few weeks earlier.
-
Plant seeds about 1/2–1 inch deep in loose, well-draining soil.
- Keep the soil lightly moist until germination begins.
-
Maintain temperatures around 60–70°F (16–21°C) for good germination.
-
Seeds commonly germinate in approximately 7–14 days.
- Provide support if you want the plants to climb, or allow the stems to trail naturally from baskets and containers.
- Avoid overly rich soil, as excessive fertilizer can encourage foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
Set expectations: Flower color, trailing length, and plant vigor may vary naturally within a mixed seed blend. Growing conditions such as temperature, sunlight, soil fertility, and moisture can also affect flowering and plant size.
