Keep the soil at a temperature of 70F. The seeds need some light to germinate. Be careful to not fully cover when planting. Be sure to keep seeds consistently moist until germination occurs and the plants have established. Transplant or thin the seedlings as soon as they reach a height of several inches.\u003cbr\u003eSpace plants 18-24 inches apart.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGreat for container gardening!

In zones where temperatures drop significantly (e.g., below 10°F), consider tying the foliage together in the fall to form a canopy over the crown. This helps prevent water from settling and freezing in the crown, which can cause rot. A layer of straw mulch can also help to provide winter protection. In early spring, once the danger of hard frost has passed, cut back the old foliage to about 3 inches from the ground to make way for new growth. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGoad N Gardens shipping is a one-time flat shipping rate with no additional shipping charges added, no matter how many more seeds are ordered!
