- Soil requirements: Nicotiana alata prefers well-drained, fertile soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.5. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
- Sunlight needs: These plants thrive in full sun to partial shade. They require at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth.
- Watering requirements: Nicotiana alata needs regular watering to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water the plants deeply once or twice a week, depending on the weather conditions.
- Planting season: The best time to plant Nicotiana alata 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: Sow the seeds on the surface of the soil and lightly press them in, as they need light to germinate. Space the plants about 12-18 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.
- Germination time: Nicotiana alata seeds typically germinate within 10-14 days under optimal conditions.

- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest Nicotiana alata flowers is early in the morning when the blooms are fresh and fully open.
- Harvesting tips: Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the flowers. To encourage continuous blooming, deadhead spent flowers regularly. Store harvested flowers in a cool, dry place if not used immediately.
