Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

No special preparation is required for Aubrieta seeds.

Sowing:

Sow seeds directly outdoors in early spring after the last frost date or in late summer to early fall.
Choose a sunny to partially shaded location with well-drained soil.
Sprinkle the seeds lightly on the soil surface and press them in gently.
Water lightly after sowing to settle the seeds into the soil.

Germination:

Germination typically occurs within 14-21 days.
Keep the soil consistently moist during the germination period, but avoid overwatering, as this can cause damping off.

Transplanting:

Once seedlings have grown large enough to handle, thin them to a spacing of 6-12 inches apart.
If starting seeds indoors, sow seeds in seed-starting trays filled with well-draining soil.
Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and they have developed true leaves.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Water young plants regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but reduce watering once established, as Aubrieta is drought-tolerant.
Deadheading: Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming and maintain a tidy appearance.
Pruning: After flowering, trim back the plants lightly to promote compact growth and encourage a second flush of blooms.
Winter Protection: In colder climates, mulch around the base of the plants to protect them during the winter months.
