Sowing The Seed
Love Lies bleeding can be started indoors, or directly outdoors. If started indoor, sow in peat pots, 6 to 8 weeks prior to the last frost. Sprinkle the seeds directly to the surface of the soil, allowing direct light to reach them. This is crucial to the germination process, so do not cover the seed. Direct sow, or transplant into the garden when the weather is warm and all danger of frost has passed.
Growing Conditions
Love Lies Bleeding thrives in areas consisting of full sunlight, but can tolerate a bit of partial shade as well. Temperatures should be kept around 68F to 75F for optimal growth. Though these plants can grow in virtually any medium, they prefer a poor soil, which allows them to bloom profusely. Make sure that the soil is well drained as well. To increase drainage, we recommend adding a light compost to areas containing hard, compact soil. Water daily with a mist setting until germination occurs.
