🗓️ When to Sow

• Indoors: Start 6–8 weeks before the last frost

• Outdoors: Direct sow after last frost in mild, damp areas

🌿 Monkey flowers prefer cool to moderate temperatures and moist soil conditions.

🌱 How to Sow Indoors (Recommended)

1. Containers & Soil

   • Use seed trays or small pots with fine, moist seed-starting mix

2. Sowing

   • Surface sow — seeds are tiny and need light to germinate

   • Do not cover; press lightly into the surface

3. Moisture & Temperature

   • Mist gently to keep soil consistently moist

   • Cover with a clear dome or plastic wrap to retain humidity

   • Ideal temperature: 18–21°C (65–70°F)

4. Germination

   • Usually in 7–14 days

   • Remove cover after germination and keep in bright light

5. Transplanting

   • Transplant carefully when seedlings have 2–3 sets of true leaves

   • Harden off before moving outdoors

🌱 Direct Sowing Outdoors (Optional)

1. Timing: After last frost, when daytime temperatures are reliably above 15°C (59°F)

2. Site

   • Partial shade to filtered sun (full sun in cooler climates)

   • Moist, rich, well-drained soil

   • Great near ponds, shaded beds, or in containers

3. Sowing

   • Surface sow and do not cover seeds

   • Water gently to settle seeds

4. Spacing

   • Thin or transplant seedlings to 6–10 inches (15–25 cm) apart

🌿 Growing Notes

• Height: 6–12 inches (15–30 cm)

• Bloom Time: Late spring through summer

• Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, especially in heat

• Feeding: Optional light feeding during growth

• Deadheading: Encourages more blooms
