For best results, scarify the seeds by lightly rubbing them with sandpaper or soaking in warm water for 24 hours before planting. Press seeds into the soil surface and cover lightly with 1\/4 inch of soil, as they need light to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 10-21 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce established, Partridge Pea requires minimal care. Water during extended dry periods, but avoid overwatering. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming, or allow seed pods to mature for self-seeding. This plant thrives in poor to average soil and does not need fertilizer. It may reseed readily in optimal conditions, returning year after year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e25 Partridge Pea flower seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67776114753846,"sku":"FOLIA-129","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6667136508_94p9.jpg?v=1792467778","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/25-partridge-pea-flower-seeds-bright-yellow-wildflowers-for-pollinators","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
