Sowing and germination
Sow directly into the ground after all risk of frost.
For a faster start, start seeds indoors in early April . Lightly press seeds into the soil without covering them (they need light to germinate). Maintain a temperature of 70°F (20°C) for quick germination in 5 to 10 days .
Transplantation and maintenance
Acclimate the young plants before transplanting them outside in late May. Plant them in well-drained soil rich in organic matter . Space them 10 cm (4 inches) apart to allow them to spread out.
Tip to make them climb! ???
Although this variety is compact, you can give it height by making it climb on original supports!
Use an upside down tomato cage to create a cascading effect of flowers.
Install ropes or trellises in a pot to guide their growth upwards.
Pair them with Morning Glories (Mirabilis jalapa) for a striking contrast between their morning and evening flowers.
Flowering and maintenance
For abundant flowering, favor a sunny location . In very hot climates, light shade (4 to 6 hours of sun) is preferable. Prune lightly after the first flowering to encourage a second wave of flowers.
