How to grow Kopper King Mallow seeds

Choose Your Planting Method

• Indoors: Start indoors 6-12 weeks before the last frost for first-year blooms.
• Outdoors: Direct sow after the last frost, when the soil is warm.

Prepare Your Materials

• Seed-starting trays or pots (if indoors)
• Well-draining potting mix
• Plastic wrap or a humidity dome to hold moisture
• Spray bottle for misting

Sowing the Seeds

• Soak seeds in room-temperature water overnight to soften the hard seed coat.
• Sow 1/4 inch (6 mm) deep and cover lightly.

Provide the Right Conditions

• Light: Bright light; warmth matters more than light for these seeds.
• Temperature: 70-80°F (21-27°C).

Germination

• Germination takes 10-30 days.
• Keep soil evenly moist; a heat mat speeds things along.

Transplanting

• Transplant after the last frost, when seedlings are a few inches tall.
• Harden off for a week.
• Space 3-4 feet apart — these are big plants.

Care Tips

• Sun: Full sun for the most blooms.
• Water: Keep soil consistently moist; never let it dry out completely.
• Fertilizer: Feed monthly in summer with a balanced fertilizer.
• Cut back dead stems in late fall or early spring; new growth emerges late in spring, so be patient.

Bloom Time:

Summer to early fall.
