How to Start
-
For best results, cold-stratify the seeds in a slightly moist medium for approximately 4–8 weeks.
-
After stratification, sow seeds about 1/8–1/4 inch deep in a clean, well-draining seed-starting mix.
- Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged.
-
Maintain temperatures around 65–75°F (18–24°C).
-
Germination commonly occurs in approximately 2–4 weeks after stratification.
- Once seedlings are established, transplant them into a sunny garden location.
- Allow good spacing and airflow as the plants mature.
Set expectations: Germination and flowering may vary depending on seed freshness, stratification, temperature, moisture, and local growing conditions. Seed-grown plants may also show natural variation in flower shade, height, and growth habit.
