Scarify seeds by nicking the seed coat or soaking in warm water for 24 hours to improve germination. Plant seeds about 1\/4 inch deep in a well-draining seed-starting mix. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Germination typically occurs in 14 to 30 days at temperatures around 65-70°F (18-21°C).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce seedlings have developed several true leaves, transplant them outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 12 to 18 inches apart in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a deep root system. Once established, Cobb Mountain Lupine is relatively drought-tolerant. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage additional blooms and prevent self-seeding if desired. In colder climates, apply a layer of mulch around the base of plants in late fall to protect roots over winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e25 Cobb Mountain Lupine seeds for planting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67776106922294,"sku":"FOLIA-030","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6719653846_mk1i.jpg?v=1792467599","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/cobb-mountain-lupine-seeds-purple-flower-garden-planting-25-seeds","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
