Growing Info
How to Plant | Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball. Fill a little bit of the loose dirt back into the hole and tuck your plant in so the base of the stem is even with the top of the hole. Now fill in the rest of the soil around the roots, give the soft ground around the base of your new plant friend a few solid pats to compress the soil onto the roots, and a long, gentle drink of water |
Where to Plant | Find a place that gets a decent amount of sun |
When to Plant | Plant outside in the spring, After your last frost. Avoid the heat of the day when planting — plant in the early morning, late afternoon, or by the light of the moon |
When to Expect Blooms | All summer! |
Care Instructions | Water regularly until they get established, and then give them extra water during dry spells. Pick blooms to encourage more |
Extra Credit | Lace Flower is in the same family as Queen Anne's Lace and will readily self seed in poor soil if left to go to seed |
