Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; they need light to germinate. Keep soil moist but not waterlogged at around 65-70°F (18-21°C). Germination typically occurs in 10-21 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into individual pots and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions before planting in the garden after the danger of frost has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater regularly during the growing season, but avoid overhead watering to prevent disease. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. In cooler climates, plants can be overwintered indoors or treated as annuals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e200 White Cape Daisy seeds (Osteospermum ecklonis).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795602899254,"sku":"FOLIA2-647","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7340252509_jggo.jpg?v=1792671886","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/200-white-cape-daisy-seeds-osteospermum-ecklonis-elegant-blooms","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
