GROWING TIPS
Start seed indoors 6-8 weeks before transplanting into the garden. Cover soil very lightly as seeds require light to germinate. Optimum soil temperature for seed germination is 65-75 degrees. Transplant to the garden 1-2 weeks after your average last frost date. Prefers well-drained soil. Established plants can be cut back several times throughout the growing season. Pruning encourages new growth on the plant. Great for container and in-ground gardening.
