Planting & Care

Sow Rodeo Rose Lupine seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Scarify seeds by nicking the hard coat or soaking in warm water for 24 hours to improve germination. Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in moist, well-drained soil. Keep soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 14-21 days at 65-70°F (18-21°C).

Once seedlings have developed true leaves, transplant them outdoors after hardening off. Space plants 12-18 inches apart in a sunny location. Water regularly during dry spells, but avoid overwatering. 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 protect plants from intense heat.
