Clarkia is an easy flower to grow from seed.
- The best time to sow Clarkia seeds directly outdoors is in the spring after the danger of frost has passed.
- Choose a location that receives full sun or partial shade.
- Add some compost or organic matter for good drainage. Sow seeds about 5mm deep and keep the soil moist until germination, which usually takes 1-2 weeks.
- Once the seedlings are about 10cm tall, thin them out for good air circulation.
*Please note:
- Please do not be too hasty in discarding seeds that do not germinate; seeds will often lay dormant until conditions are like their natural germination requirements.
- All seeds must have adequate water to germinate; keep them moist but not too wet.
- These growth notes are provided as guidance only and do not guarantee successful germination.
- Customers should do their due diligence and ensure they are suited to their region.
