Lightly press seeds into the soil surface; do not cover deeply, as light aids germination. Keep soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 2-4 weeks. Once seedlings have several true leaves, transplant outdoors after the danger of frost has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a deep root system. Once established, Rattlesnake Master is low-maintenance and drought-tolerant. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage rebloom, or leave seed heads for winter interest and bird forage. Divide clumps every few years to maintain vigor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e100 Rattlesnake Master (Eryngium yuccifolium) seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67726882930998,"sku":"BOTAN4-136","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7652301389_ttfe.jpg?v=1791980217","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/rattlesnake-master-seeds-eryngium-yuccifolium-native-prairie-wildflower-100-seeds","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
