Sowing Instructions

 

Sow seeds indoors from March to April, placing them in trays filled with fine compost. Lightly cover the seeds and keep the soil moist, ensuring a temperature range 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 30-45 cm apart in a sunny, sheltered spot.

 

For direct outdoor sowing, wait until the soil is warm and scatter seeds in well-prepared soil, lightly raking the area and watering gently. Thin the seedlings to achieve proper spacing as they grow.

 

The Hollyhock Dwarf Indian Spring Mix adds a stunning pop of colour and charm to your garden, providing long-lasting beauty and attracting pollinators all season long.
