Know before you buy

For the best results, maintain a soil temperature between 65-70°F. Under these conditions, you can expect germination to occur within 7 to 9 days.
No, these are raw, untreated seeds, which makes them a great option for gardeners who prefer to avoid chemical coatings in their planting process.
This variety is a reliable bloomer that provides color throughout the summer months, typically flowering from June through August.
Once established, these plants prefer cooler growing conditions, ideally 60-65°F during the day and 45-50°F at night.
