Planting Instructions: Soil Preparation: Remove weeds, large rocks, and litter from the planting area. Till the soil 10 - 12 inches deep and rake several times to break up large clods. It is best to do this when the soil is dry enough to not stick to garden tools. Loosening the soil will help the plant establish strong roots. Planting: Plant in late Fall when the ground is below 50F or early Spring. Cold-stratification is not required, but light exposure will increase germination. Add 1/2" - 3/4" layer of peat moss, sawdust, or potting soil to top of a mostly sunny and clear area. Broadcast seeds then water to push seeds into area. Keep moist until established. Adaptive, drought-tolerant. Annual. Planting Depth: 1/8 inch Within-Row Spacing: 6 - 12 inches Between-Row Spacing: 2 - 3 feet Shipping Policy: We ship in 1 business day via USPS First Class Mail!
