You only need to pay shipping for ONE of my auctions, as all other auctions for the week will be included FREE in the parcel. Parcel also includes a tracking number. I am happy to say that my test seeds germinated within 3 days at a temp of 90°F. Excellent for beginners!
Propagation Method: From seed, sow seeds indoors 6 weeks before last spring frost. Sow 3-5 seeds per pot. About 10 days before the last spring frost, begin hardening the plants to the outdoors. Transplant your plants to a sunny location.
