HARDY ANNUAL

Spring/summer bloom
Can handle light frost

TO START OUTDOORS

Sow seeds in a well-drained, finely textured garden bed in full sun as early in spring as soil can be worked. In mild climate areas, seeds are best sown in early fall for spring bloom. Space seeds 2 to 3 inches apart and cover 1/4 inch deep. Keep seed bed moist until seedlings emerge in 7 to 10 days. Weed carefully and keep well watered.


TO START EARLY INDOORS

Start seed indoors in a flat or container of seed starting mix, 6 to 8 weeks before last expected hard freeze. Sow seed thinly, cover 1/4 inch deep, and keep moist but not soggy until germination takes place in 7 to 14 days. Provide a strong light source as soon as seedlings emerge. Seedlings grow quickly and require even moisture at their earliest stages: overwatering encourages “damping off,” or rotting at the soil level.


THIN OR TRANSPLANT

Space seedlings 10 inches apart when seedlings are large enough to handle.


GROWING NOTES

This early blooming, branching variety produces an abundance of richly scented flowers for indoor bouquets. In the garden, stock’s heavy trusses of bloom are beautiful in beds, borders and containers.
