Scarify seeds by nicking the seed coat or soaking in warm water for 24 hours to improve germination. Press seeds into the soil surface and cover lightly, as light aids germination. Keep the growing medium consistently moist but not waterlogged at around 65-70°F (18-21°C). Germination typically occurs in 14-30 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce seedlings have developed true leaves, transplant them into individual pots and harden off before planting outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 12-18 inches apart in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during establishment. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage additional blooms and prevent self-seeding if desired. In hot climates, provide afternoon shade to help plants thrive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e25 Gallery Pink Lupine seeds (Lupinus polyphyllus).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67824614080822,"sku":"FOLIA2-759","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7476350575_kkal.jpg?v=1793003654","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/25-gallery-pink-lupine-seeds-lupinus-polyphyllus-compact-perennial-for-cottage-pollinator-gardens","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
