Crossandra Yellow Splash pack of 8-10 seeds Imported

Crossandra Yellow Splash(Crossandra infundibuliformis), also known as Firecracker Flower, from seeds is a rewarding process. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you successfully grow Crossandra from seeds:

Crossandra Yellow Splash Materials Needed

• Crossandra seeds
• Seed starting tray or small pots
• Seed starting mix (sterile and well-draining)
• Spray bottle or watering can with a fine nozzle
• Plastic wrap or a humidity dome
• Grow lights or a sunny windowsill

Steps for Growing Crossandra from Seed

1. Prepare the Seed Starting Mix:
   • Fill your seed starting tray or small pots with a sterile seed starting mix.
   • Moisten the mix with water so it’s damp but not soaking wet.
2. Sow the Seeds:
   • Scatter the Crossandra seeds evenly on the surface of the seed starting mix.
   • Lightly press the seeds into the soil, but do not cover them, as they need light to germinate.
3. Provide Light and Humidity:
   • Place the tray or pots in a location where they will receive bright, indirect light. If using grow lights, position them a few inches above the seeds.
   • Cover the tray or pots with plastic wrap or a humidity dome to maintain moisture and humidity.
4. Maintain Moisture:
   • Keep the seed starting mix consistently moist by misting it with water. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to fungal issues.
   • Remove the plastic wrap or humidity dome once the seeds start to germinate.
5. Germination:
   • Crossandra seeds typically germinate in 2 to 4 weeks. Be patient and keep the soil moist during this period.
6. Transplanting:
   • Once the seedlings have developed a few true leaves and are large enough to handle, they can be transplanted into individual pots or directly into the garden.
   • Choose a well-draining soil mix and ensure the plants receive bright, indirect light.
7. Care and Maintenance:
   • Water the seedlings regularly, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings.
   • Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every few weeks to promote healthy growth.
   • Crossandra thrives in warm temperatures and high humidity, so consider providing additional humidity if growing indoors.
