Planting and Sowing Instructions:

1. Preparation: Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date for early blooming or directly sow them outdoors after all danger of frost has passed.

2. Sowing Indoors: Fill a seed tray with a fine, well-draining seed-starting mix. Gently press the seeds into the soil, covering lightly with a thin layer of soil.

3. Light & Temperature: Place the tray in a warm, bright area (70-75°F / 21-24°C). Keep the soil moist but not soaking wet. The seeds typically germinate in 10-14 days.

4. Transplanting: Once the seedlings have grown large enough to handle and outdoor temperatures are consistently warm, transplant them into your garden or containers. Ensure proper spacing (10-14 inches apart) to allow for full growth.

5. Outdoor Sowing: If direct sowing, scatter seeds over well-prepared soil and lightly cover. Water thoroughly after sowing and maintain consistent moisture until germination.

Care Instructions:

• Watering: While the Pink Dragon Coleus is drought-tolerant once established, it performs best with regular watering during dry spells.

• Pruning: To maintain bushy growth, pinch back the growing tips regularly. This will also promote more branching and more vibrant foliage.

• Fertilization: Fertilize the plant monthly during the growing season with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer to encourage optimal growth.
