Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Thin seedlings to 15cm (6\") apart. Water well until plants are established and keep weed free. Or sow indoors, February-April, 0.5cm (¼\") deep, in trays of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 10-15°C (50-60°F) is ideal. Keep moist. Transplant seedlings, 5cm (2\") apart, to other trays when large enough to handle (always handle by a leaf and never by the stem). Grow on in cooler, but not cold conditions. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out, May-June, 15cm (6\") apart, when frosts are over. Flowers: June-October.\u003c\/span\u003e\r\n\u003ch4 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTips\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhen the first flowers fade, trim back the plants to encourage further flushes of colour.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Ontario Seed Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49712656351472,"sku":"89507","price":1.64,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0421\/3617\/4760\/files\/89507-1.jpg?v=1772490001","url":"https:\/\/floralacres.ca\/products\/alyssum-saxatile-seeds-osc-89511","provider":"Floral Acres Greenhouse \u0026 Garden Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
