How to grow Mixed Pennywort seeds

Choose Your Planting Method

• Indoors: Start seeds indoors in early spring, about 8 weeks before the last frost.
• Outdoors: Sow after the last frost in a consistently moist spot, such as a bog garden or pond margin.

Prepare Your Materials

• Seed-starting trays or pots (if indoors)
• Well-draining potting mix
• Shallow tray or pots (seeds like a constantly moist medium)
• Spray bottle for misting

Sowing the Seeds

• Sow on the surface of moist, fine seed-starting mix and press gently
• Keep the medium constantly moist — never let it dry out

Provide the Right Conditions

• Light: Bright, indirect light
• Temperature: 70-75°F (21-24°C)
• Humidity: Cover with a dome or plastic wrap to keep humidity high until sprouts appear

Germination

• Germination is slow and irregular — keep the medium warm and moist and be patient
• Remove the cover once seedlings emerge and keep them evenly moist

Transplanting

• Transplant after the last frost when seedlings are sturdy
• Set plants in a moist bed or pond margin
• Space plants 8-12 inches apart; they will creep to fill in

Care Tips

• Sun: Full sun to partial shade
• Water: Keep soil consistently moist or even boggy
• Fertilizer: Generally needs no feeding
• Trim back runners regularly to keep it contained — it can spread aggressively

Bloom Time:
