Sow seeds into 288-cell or deep-cell seedling containers 12-13 weeks before transplanting outdoors or into production beds. Provide light during germination and cover seeds with only a thin layer of fine vermiculite to control algae. Greenhouse production is highly recommended for successful propagation.
Transplant seedlings to their final location once they have developed sufficient root systems, typically around the 12-13 week mark from seed sowing. Space transplants 4 inches apart.
Cut stems for arrangements when one or more flowers on the stem are open. This timing ensures the blooms are mature enough to last well in the vase while still displaying fresh color.
