Planting & Care Instructions

Seed Preparation & Germination

1. Cold Stratification (Optional): Store seeds in a damp paper towel inside a plastic bag in the refrigerator for 4-6 weeks to improve germination.
2. Sowing: Sprinkle seeds on the surface of moist, well-draining soil in trays or pots. Do not cover them, as they need light to germinate.
3. Germination: Maintain consistent moisture. Seeds typically sprout within 2-8 weeks.

Transplanting & Growth

• Once seedlings have 2-3 true leaves, transplant them into individual pots or directly into the garden.
• Space plants 12-24 inches apart to allow for mature growth.
• Choose a shaded or partially shaded area with nutrient-rich soil.

Maintenance & Care

• Watering: Keep soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods.
• Mulching: Apply mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
• Fertilization: Use a balanced slow-release fertilizer in spring and midsummer.
• Dividing: Every 3-5 years, divide mature plants to maintain vigor.
• Winter Care: Trim back dead foliage in late fall; hostas will regrow in spring.
