Planting Tips for Success

• Timing: Direct sow after frost danger has passed and soil has warmed, following packet guidance for depth and spacing. Harden off indoor-grown seedlings before transplanting.
• Sunlight: Choose full sun for strong growth and flowering.
• Soil: Use well-drained soil and avoid persistently wet locations. Excessively rich soil can encourage leafy growth rather than flowers.
• Establishment: Keep the seedbed evenly moist during germination. Thin crowded seedlings to allow branching and airflow.
• Watering: Water regularly while seedlings establish, then water at the base as needed during dry periods. Avoid keeping roots saturated.
• Fertilizing: Feed only as needed for your soil and follow label directions. Avoid excessive nitrogen.
• Support: Install stakes or flower-support netting early in exposed locations to help tall stems remain upright.
• Flower Care: Remove spent flowers to keep the planting tidy and encourage continued bloom.
• Cutting: Harvest during the cool part of the day, place stems promptly in clean water, and remove foliage below the waterline.
