How to Plant Spiderflower from Seed

When to Plant Seeds

  • Cool Climates: Sow seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost.
  • Warm Climates: Direct sow outdoors after the last frost.

Preparing the Planting Site

  1. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil.
  2. Loosen the soil and mix in compost for added nutrients.

Sowing Seeds Outdoors

  1. Scatter seeds directly on the soil surface.
  2. Lightly press into the soil without burying them deeply (they need light to germinate).
  3. Water gently to keep soil moist but not waterlogged.
  4. Germination occurs in 7-14 days.

Starting Seeds Indoors

  • Use seed trays or small pots filled with moist seed-starting mix.
  • Place in a warm, bright location.
  • Transplant seedlings outdoors once they are 4-6 inches tall.

Pro Tip

Plant them where they have plenty of space to grow, and deadhead spent blooms to encourage continuous flowering.

Bonus: Their spider-like flowers attract pollinators like bees and butterflies!
