Grow a stunning and subtle garden with Bounteous Gomphrena Pink Flower Seeds. Each seed produces a vibrant petunia-like bloom with wavy magenta petals and a yellow center. These fast-growing annuals thrive in sunny locations and are suitable for cut bouquets.
Highlights:
- Full-bloom Period: Summer
- Type: Blooming Plants
- Variety: Gomphrena
- Soil requirements: Gomphrena prefers well-drained soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.0. The soil should be moderately fertile and have good drainage to prevent waterlogging.
- Sunlight needs: These seeds require full sun to thrive. Ensure they receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
- Watering requirements: Water the seeds regularly but do not overwater. Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Once established, Gomphrena is relatively drought-tolerant.
- Planting season: The best time to plant Gomphrena seeds is in the spring after the last frost has passed. They can also be started indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date.
- Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds at a depth of 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) and space them about 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.
- Germination time: Gomphrena seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days under optimal conditions.
- Maturity time: Gomphrena plants usually reach maturity and start blooming within 8-10 weeks after planting.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest Gomphrena flowers is in the early morning when the blooms are fresh and fully open.
- Harvesting tips: Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the stems. Harvest regularly to encourage continuous blooming. Store the harvested flowers in a cool, dry place if you plan to use them for dried arrangements.
