Sowing Instructions

 

Sow seeds indoors from March to April in trays filled with fine compost. Lightly cover the seeds with a thin layer of compost, keeping the soil moist and ensuring a temperature of 18-21°C for optimal germination.

 

Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots and harden them off before planting them outdoors after the last frost. Space plants 30-40 cm apart in a sunny, well-drained location.

 

For outdoor sowing, wait until the soil has warmed up and sow seeds directly in well-prepared soil. Thin the seedlings once they have grown large enough to allow for proper spacing.

 

Coreopsis Dwarf Bi-Colour adds a bright and cheerful touch to any garden, offering an elegant contrast of colours and attracting pollinators throughout the summer.
