Mixed Dahlia Pompon Flower Seeds for Planting Heirloom & Non-GMO Summer Blooming Garden Variety

Details Planting and Growing Instructions: 1. When to Plant: Start indoors 68 weeks before your last frost date or sow directly outdoors after all danger of frost has passed. For tuber development, plant in early spring for summer flowering. 2. Seed Starting Indoors: Sow seeds inch deep in a moist, well-draining seed-starting mix. Maintain soil temperature between 6570F (1821C). Provide bright light; germination takes 714 days. 3. Transplanting: Harden off seedlings before transplanting outdoors. Space plants 1218 inches apart in well-drained, fertile soil. Choose a location with full sun (6 hours daily). 4. Care & Maintenance: Water deeply but allow the soil to dry slightly between watering. Fertilize every 34 weeks with a low-nitrogen flower fertilizer. Pinch early growth to promote bushiness. Deadhead regularly to extend blooming. Support tall plants to prevent flopping. 5. Seasonal Notes: In zones 811, tubers can overwinter in-ground. In colder zones, dig up tubers after the first frost and store them in a dry, cool place.
