This variety needs light to germinate! Maintain a temperature of 60-68°F (15-20°C) for germination, which typically occurs in 10-21 days. Transplant seedlings into the garden after the danger of frost has passed, spacing them 4-8 inches (10-20 cm) apart.

Choose a location with partial sun to full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly, especially during dry periods. Harvest when the first few flowers on a stem begin to open.
