Tips
Centaurea is best sown directly outdoors.
Keep the soil surface moist until the seeds germinate. Once the seedlings have developed their first true leaves, thin them out to a spacing of 15–23 cm.
How many seeds do you need per square meter?
Each packet contains enough seeds for approximately 1 square meter of flowers. This may vary by variety, so take the mature size of the plants into account. A helpful tip: don’t sow all at once. Spread the sowing over multiple times to extend the flowering season and have a backup if the first sowing doesn’t go well. A single seed can grow into a full plant, so provide enough space. Store your seeds in a cool, dry place – they will remain viable for 2 to 3 years.
How much sun do annual flowers need?
Annuals bloom best in full sun, with at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. But the more sun – ideally more than 8 hours – the faster and more abundantly they’ll bloom. In shaded areas, flowering may be limited.
Planting instructions:
- Moisten the soil so the seeds adhere well.
- Cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil – check the planting depth per variety on the back of the packet or on this page.
- Use fertile, well-drained soil.
- Give the seeds a sunny spot and protect them from strong winds. Support plants if necessary.
- Water regularly and remove weeds.
