- Soil requirements: Salvia splendens prefers well-drained, fertile soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.5. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
- Sunlight needs: These plants thrive in full sun, requiring at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. They can tolerate partial shade but may not bloom as profusely.
- Watering requirements: Water the plants regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. During dry periods, increase the frequency of watering to ensure the soil does not dry out completely.
- Planting season: The best time to plant Salvia splendens seeds is in the spring after the last frost has passed. Indoor sowing can be done 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date.
- Depth and spacing: Sow the seeds at a depth of 1/8 inch (3 mm) and space them about 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart to allow for adequate air circulation and growth.
- Germination time: Salvia splendens seeds typically germinate within 10-14 days under optimal conditions.
- Maturity time: Salvia splendens plants usually reach maturity and begin to bloom within 12-14 weeks after planting.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest Salvia splendens 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 flowers. To encourage continuous blooming, deadhead spent flowers regularly. Store harvested flowers in a cool, dry place if not used immediately.
