Sow a garden of color.

Poppies thrive when sown directly in their final outdoor location rather than being transplanted. Can be planted outdoors once the seedlings are established. In growing zones 3–7, sow seeds in late autumn or early spring, even if a light frost is possible. In zones 8–10, plant these poppy seeds in late autumn or winter.

Scabiosa, also known as pincushion flowers, are easy-to-grow, typically short-lived perennial flowers in various hues. They are button-like in shape and have petals that flutter in the breeze. Under ideal growing conditions, blooms can last from spring to the first frost, although they might slow down in the high heat of summer. Scabiosa grows best in moderate temperatures or some shade if you live in a hot climate with harsh afternoon sun. This flower is not necessarily fussy about the soil type, but it must be very well-draining for the plant to thrive.

Soil temperature: 70°F Germination lighting: Light Germination period: 14 days Weeks indoors: 10 Seed depth: 1/16" Seed spacing: 18" Plant spread: 18" Plant height: 24–36" Plant type: Perennial Before sowing, we recommend cold treating your seeds for 30 days. Mix your seed packet with 1 tablespoon of fine sand and 1 teaspoon of water in a baggie, then store it in the refrigerator (not the freezer) for 30 days. After cold treatment, allow the seed mix to dry, then sow on the surface of your potting mix and expose it to light.
