Planting, sowing China pink

Once you’ve got some going, or if a neighbor is growing them, go ahead and start them from seed. If not, I recommend you to buy seeds in our store, it will give you a great shopping experience.

How to sow China pink

China pink can be sown as early as February, even a bit earlier for regions that are more in the South.

• You may proceed to sow under shelter starting from the month of February.
• Cover the seeds with only a very thin layer of soil mix because they also need light to start germinating.
• They germinate at 65 to 68°F (18 to 20°C).
• Sprouting should take 1 or 2 weeks.
• Transplant your China pink once to a nursery pot and then transfer to the open air during the month of May, after any risk of freezing has disappeared.
• You may sow directly in the ground starting in April or May if the climate in your area permits.

Note that your China pink will need sufficient sun to bloom, at least 3 to 4 hours of direct sunlight a day.

For China pinks purchased in containers, plant them to the ground in spring or at the end of summer, these are the two ideal planting dates.

• Keep at least 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30 cm) between China pink plants, so that they may have space to grow.
