Steps to Grow Lavatera from Seed

1. Seed Selection:
   • Choose high-quality Lavatera seeds from a reputable supplier. Different varieties may offer various colors and sizes, so select according to your preferences.
2. Sowing Time:
   • Lavatera seeds can be sown indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date or directly outdoors after the last frost.
3. Preparing the Soil:
   • Fill seed trays or small pots with a seed starting mix or a light, well-draining potting soil. Ensure the soil is moist but not waterlogged.
4. Sowing the Seeds:
   • Sow the seeds about 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) deep. You can sprinkle the seeds thinly over the soil surface and then lightly cover them with a thin layer of soil or gently press them into the soil.
5. Watering:
   • Water the soil gently using a spray bottle to avoid dislodging the seeds. Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy.
6. Covering:
   • Cover the seed trays or pots with a clear plastic cover or plastic wrap to retain moisture. Ensure there is some ventilation to prevent mold growth.
7. Germination:
   • Place the covered seed trays in a warm, bright location. A temperature of around 70-75°F (21-24°C) is ideal for germination.
   • Germination typically takes 10-14 days. Check regularly for signs of sprouting.
