- Sowing Depth: Press seeds lightly into soil; do not cover, as they need light to germinate.
- Moisture & Light: Keep soil moist but not soggy; provide warmth (70-75°F) for germination.
- Germination Time: Seeds typically sprout within 14-28 days under optimal conditions.
Transplanting & Growth
- Once seedlings have 2-3 sets of leaves, transplant them 12-18 inches apart in well-draining soil.
- Ensure full sun exposure for the richest color and strongest fragrance.
Maintenance & Care
- Watering: Water moderately; avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
- Fertilization: Use a low-nitrogen fertilizer once a month to promote blooms.
- Deadheading: Remove spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming.
- Winter Care: In colder regions, lift tubers in fall and store in a cool, dry place for replanting in spring.
