Alpine Forget-me-not Pink

1000 seeds

Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Lightly press seeds into moist, well-draining seed-starting mix, as they require light to germinate. Keep the soil at 65-70°F (18-21°C) and maintain consistent moisture. Germination usually takes 10-20 days. Once seedlings are strong enough and outdoor temperatures are above 50°F (10°C), transplant them to a cool, partially shaded location with well-draining, slightly acidic soil. Space plants 6-8 inches apart. Water regularly to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Alpine Forget-me-nots prefer cooler conditions, so avoid hot, sunny spots. Fertilize lightly with a balanced fertilizer. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms and prolong the flowering period.
