Sowing Guidance for Growing Frilly Giant Mixed Pansy Seeds
- For the best coloured flowers, sow seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost, then transplant them to their final growing location.
- The germination period is between 10 to 20 days, cover seeds with a fine layer of soil and keep the soil moist during this time.
- Cover the seed tray or pots with a polythene wrap to keep seeds moist. Place in a dark area if possible to aide germination.
- sow seeds outdoors in mid spring for early flowering, in an area that has full sun and or partial shade for the best results.
- For later flowering sow seeds between late summer and early fall.
- Once flowers have fully bloomed they can be harvested for consumption in drinks, baking and food in general.
