Gomphrena Flower Seeds for Planting – Heirloom & Non-GMO Globe Amaranth, Drought-Tolerant Blooms

Planting and Growing Instructions:

1. When to Plant:

• Start indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost or sow directly outdoors after frost danger has passed.

2. Seed Starting Indoors:

• Soak seeds overnight to improve germination.

• Use a well-draining seed-starting mix.

• Sow ¼ inch deep and lightly cover.

• Maintain temperature at 70–75°F (21–24°C).

• Germination occurs in 10–14 days.

3. Transplanting Outdoors:

• Harden off seedlings before transplanting.

• Choose a location with full sun and well-drained soil.

• Space plants 10–12 inches apart.

4. Growing Conditions:

• Water deeply but infrequently once established—very drought-tolerant.

• Requires minimal fertilization; avoid overwatering.

• Deadheading is optional but may encourage fuller blooming.

• Great for cut flowers and dried bouquets—retain color exceptionally well after drying.
