For best growth, sow pyrethrum seeds in early spring after the final frost. To have a head start when the season starts, sow the seeds indoors six to eight weeks before the final frost. This will provide the plants with an early start before transplanting them outdoors. Ageretaum Blue can be a good companion

Pyrethrum occurs naturally in well-fertilized well-drained soil. Begin by choosing a sunny location since flowers need a minimum of six hours of direct sunlight daily. The second is to dig the soil using a garden fork and incorporate compost or organic matter to raise the nutritional content. Waterlogged heavy soils are to be avoided since they may result in root rot.

Next, sow the seeds. Scatter them on the soil surface and gently press into the soil. Do not sow too deeply since they need light to grow. Water lightly to moisten the compost but not enough to waterlog it. In case seed trays are used, use a freely draining potting compost.

Seedlings will be ready in 10 to 14 days. Water the ground but not too much and give lots of light. Thin seedlings when they have two sets of leaves, giving them 12 inches of space. This gives them enough room to grow and air circulation.

Pyrethrum is a low-maintenance flower once established. Water flowers for one week, but let soil partially dry in between. Mulch will prevent moisture loss and weeds. Fertilize monthly with a general-purpose fertilizer to bloom optimally.

To extend flowering seasons, remove dropped flowers on a regular basis. Deadheading causes the flower to keep blooming. Some flowers can be reserved for sowing seeds to harvest whenever necessary.

The pyrethrum repels all except for most insects. They are prone to spider mites and aphids, though. Rinse with water whenever necessary or spray with insecticidal soap.

Sowing pyrethrum from seed is easy and rewarding to do. With a small amount of TLC, the gorgeous flowers will paint your garden a riot of color and repel insects. If you simply follow the simple instructions below, you can use them for twelve months of the year.
