Sun Requirement: Full Sun

Planting Instructions:

Start Indoors: 6–8 weeks before the last frost, or sow directly into the garden once the soil has warmed.
Preparation: Use a well-draining seed starting mix.
Sowing: Press seeds lightly into the soil. They need a bit of light to germinate, so don’t bury them too deep!
Care: Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Germination usually occurs within 10–21 days.
Transplant: Move outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, spacing plants about 12 inches apart.
