-
Prepare the Soil: Choose a location with well-draining soil. Amend the soil with organic matter if necessary to improve drainage. Make sure the site gets full to partial sunlight.

Soak the Seeds: Soak the seeds in lukewarm water for 3-4 hours before planting to improve germination rates.
-
Planting Depth: Sow the seeds about 1 inch (2.5 cm) deep. Space the seeds 4-6 inches apart to allow for proper growth and air circulation.
-
Watering: Water gently after planting to moisten the soil. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal issues.
-
Germination: Germination typically occurs in 3-4 weeks at a soil temperature of around 65-75°F (18-24°C).
-
Transplanting: Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them outdoors after the last frost in your region, or grow them indoors if in colder zones. Ensure the soil is warm enough before planting outside.
-
Care During Growing Season: Fertilize every 4-6 weeks with an organic, balanced fertilizer to promote strong growth and beautiful blooms. Mulch around the plants to help retain moisture and keep weeds at bay.
-
Post-Bloom Care: After the flowers have finished blooming, cut back the plants to encourage new growth. In colder regions, consider bringing the plants inside for the winter to protect them from frost.
