How to Seed Layia ‘Coastal Tidy Tips’ (Layia elegans platyglossa)

  1. Sowing Time:
    Sow directly outdoors from March to May, or in autumn (September–October) in mild climates for early spring flowering. These wildflowers do best when direct-sown, as they dislike transplanting.

  2. Sowing Depth:
    Scatter seeds on the soil surface and cover lightly with about 0.5 cm of fine soil. Press gently to ensure good seed-to-soil contact.

  3. Soil:
    Prefers light, well-drained sandy or loamy soil. Avoid rich or heavy clay soils. Layia thrives in poor to moderately fertile soil.

  4. Light & Temperature:
    Choose a sunny, open location. Ideal germination temperature is 15–20 °C (59–68 °F).

  5. Germination Time:
    Seeds germinate in 7–14 days under warm, bright, and moist conditions.

  6. Thinning / Spacing:
    When seedlings are about 5–7 cm tall, thin them to 15–20 cm apart for strong, healthy growth and airflow.

  7. Growing Tips:

    • Water gently after sowing and keep soil lightly moist until seedlings establish.

    • Once mature, Layia is drought-tolerant and needs minimal watering.

    • Avoid overfertilizing — poor soil encourages more flowers.

    • The ‘Coastal Tidy Tips’ variety produces golden-yellow daisy-like blooms with neat white-tipped petals, perfect for borders, rock gardens, and wildflower meadows.

    • Blooms from spring to early summer, attracting bees and butterflies.
