How to grow Pink Sparkler Blush Cleome seeds

Choose Your Planting Method

• Indoors: Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date.
• Outdoors: Direct sow after the last frost, when the soil has warmed.

Prepare Your Materials

• Seed-starting trays or pots (if indoors)
• Well-draining seed-starting mix
• Spray bottle for misting

Sowing the Seeds

• Sow on the surface and press gently into the mix; cleome seeds need light to germinate.
• Chilling seeds in the refrigerator for 5-7 days before sowing can improve germination.

Provide the Right Conditions

• Light: Bright light; seedlings need strong light to stay sturdy.
• Temperature: 70-75°F (21-24°C) for germination.

Germination

• Seeds sprout in 7-21 days; some are slow, so keep the mix evenly moist.
• Thin or transplant seedlings so they are not crowded.

Transplanting

• Set plants out after all danger of frost has passed and the weather is warm.
• Space plants 12-18 inches apart.

Care Tips

• Sun: Full sun; cleome thrives in baking-hot spots.
• Water: Water well to establish; mature plants tolerate drier spells.
• Fertilizer: Compost at planting is usually enough; feed lightly if growth stalls.
• Pinch young plants for bushier growth; remove seed pods to limit self-seeding.

Bloom Time:

Early summer until frost, with blooms opening as soon as hot weather arrives.
