Planting Guide

Soil Requirement

Clear weeds and stones, flatten the planting ground. Loose well‑drained sandy‑loam works best; heavy clay and water‑logged low‑lying land should be avoided.

Daily‑care for Mature Plants

Grow under full‑sunshine conditions. Water moderately and avoid standing water. Pick off faded flowers to extend the blooming cycle.

Moisture‑proof sealed packaging protects seeds against dampness, mould and transit‑caused damage.

Store leftover seeds in cool, dry, shaded and well‑ventilated locations. Refrigerate for long‑time storage and stay away from high‑temperature humid air. Sow seeds within three‑month storage for the optimal germination‑rate.
