Planting and Sowing Instructions:
-
Soil Preparation: Select a well-draining, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Loosen the soil to ensure good root development.
-
Sowing: Plant seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date, or directly sow them outdoors once the danger of frost has passed.
-
For indoor planting, place the seeds in seed trays or pots, covering them lightly with soil.
-
For outdoor sowing, lightly press the seeds into the soil, covering them with a thin layer.
-
-
Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, but not waterlogged. Avoid over-watering, as it can lead to root rot.
-
Sunlight: Red Carnosa flowers thrive in full sunlight but can tolerate partial shade, especially in hotter climates.
-
Temperature: Ideal temperature for germination is between 65-75°F (18-24°C). The seeds should sprout within 2-3 weeks.
-
Transplanting: If you started the seeds indoors, transplant the seedlings into your garden once they are large enough to handle and after the last frost date.
-
Care: After planting, water regularly and remove any weeds to ensure healthy growth. Mulching around the base of the plant will help retain moisture and prevent weed growth.
-
Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced organic fertilizer once a month during the growing season to encourage strong growth and vibrant blooms.
