Lightly press seeds into the soil surface; do not cover deeply, as light aids germination. Keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge. Once seedlings have a few sets of true leaves, transplant them into individual pots or into the garden after the danger of frost has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose a location with full sun to partial shade and moist, rich soil. Water regularly to maintain even moisture, especially during dry spells. Winged Loosestrife is generally pest-free and deer-resistant. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage additional blooms, or allow seed heads to mature for self-sowing. In late fall, cut back stems to ground level to tidy the plant and promote healthy spring growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1000 Winged Loosestrife seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67739799519542,"sku":"EDNA-690","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.8032007600_cxph.jpg?v=1792116147","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/winged-loosestrife-seeds-1000-native-wetland-wildflower-seeds-pollinator-friendly","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
