Planting Tips for Success

• When to Plant: Sow outdoors after frost danger has passed and soil has warmed, or start indoors several weeks earlier. Harden off seedlings before transplanting.
• Sunlight: Choose full sun for strong stems and flowering.
• Soil: Plant in well-drained soil. Avoid overly rich fertility, which can encourage foliage at the expense of flowers.
• Sowing Depth: Cover seeds lightly, about one-quarter inch deep, and keep the seedbed evenly moist during germination.
• Spacing: Thin or transplant about 10 to 18 inches apart to allow airflow and room for branching.
• Watering: Water regularly while seedlings establish, then provide moderate moisture. Avoid constantly wet soil.
• Fertilizing: Feed only as needed for your soil and follow fertilizer label directions. Avoid excess nitrogen.
• Support: Dwarf plants usually need little support, but a low stake or small ring can help in windy locations.
• Deadheading: Remove spent flowers to keep plants tidy and encourage additional blooms. Leave selected flowers if saving seed.
• Harvesting: Cut stems when flowers are newly open and place promptly in clean water.
