Frequently asked questions

Your questions,answered.

What is in a Mme Butterfly packet?
The packet contains approximately 100 bare Mme Butterfly™ Mix F1 seeds. The product is not advertised as organic, and W.H. Perron publishes no coating, fungicide, insecticide, or other treatment. Cover the small seeds with a light layer of vermiculite. Because this is an F1 hybrid, saved seed will not faithfully reproduce the purchased mix’s azalea-type double flowers, varied colours, vigour, or uniformity. Bright light, rich but freely draining soil, and regular watering encourage straight spikes and lasting bloom without exposing roots to standing water. Harden plants before transplanting, space them for airflow, and support tall stems only when wind or close planting makes it necessary. This clear guidance helps gardeners plan sowing, care, harvesting, and display while preserving healthy roots and strong flowering stems.
How do I germinate Mme Butterfly successfully?
Sow indoors 5 to 6 weeks before planting. Cover lightly with vermiculite and maintain 21–24°C; emergence normally takes 4 to 10 days. Light is not required to trigger germination, but seedlings subsequently need at least 10.5 hours of light daily. Keep medium moist without waterlogging it, provide airflow, and reduce temperature slightly after emergence to produce compact, strong stems. Bright light, rich but freely draining soil, and regular watering encourage straight spikes and lasting bloom without exposing roots to standing water. Harden plants before transplanting, space them for airflow, and support tall stems only when wind or close planting makes it necessary.
Why do the maturity figures differ?
W.H. Perron lists 16 to 18 weeks and 60 to 75 cm height for retail packet 61-2780-010. Norseco instead publishes 12 weeks, 80 cm, and 84 days in professional information. These figures may reflect different production methods, starting points, or finish criteria. This record retains both sets rather than choosing one arbitrarily; allow more time under cool or low-light conditions.
