CELOSIA SEEDLING 6 PK

Description Key Features: Variety: This 6-pack includes a mix of popular celosia varieties such as Bright Sparks™ Mix and Dracula Celosia, featuring colors ranging from bright yellows and scarlets to deep burgundies. Height: Plants typically reach heights between 12 to 24 inches, making them suitable for borders, beds, or container gardening. Sun Requirements: Celosias thrive in full sun conditions, requiring at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. Soil Preference: They prefer well-drained, nutrient-rich soil but can tolerate poor soil conditions and dry periods once established. Pollinator Friendly: The vibrant blooms attract bees and other pollinators, enhancing biodiversity in your garden. Cut Flower Use: Ideal for fresh bouquets or dried arrangements; celosias retain their color even when dried. Growing Instructions: Transplanting: Start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost date or sow directly outdoors after all danger of frost has passed. Ensure seedlings have at least two sets of true leaves before transplanting. Spacing: Space plants about 8 to 10 inches apart to allow for optimal growth and airflow. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist during germination (10 to 15 days) and water thoroughly after transplanting. Fertilization: Apply a general-purpose fertilizer once or twice a month to promote healthy growth.
