Scarify seeds by nicking the seed coat or soaking in warm water for 24 hours to improve germination. Press seeds into moist, well-drained soil and cover lightly. Keep consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 14–30 days at 65–70°F. Once seedlings have several true leaves, transplant outdoors after hardening off. Space plants 12–18 inches apart in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during dry spells, but avoid waterlogging. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued bloom and prevent self-seeding if desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e25 Bruiser Lupine seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67824649077046,"sku":"FOLIA2-893","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7438219287_dmxd.jpg?v=1793003914","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/25-bruiser-lupine-seeds-lupinus-purple-blue-perennial-flower-for-borders-containers","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
