1. SOAK
Place your seeds in a glass of purified water. Let them soak for 12–24 hours in a warm, dark place.
2. GERMINATE
Layer your soaked seeds between moist (not soaked) paper towels on a plate. Cover and keep in a warm, dark place. Check after 2–3 days for taproots.
3. PLANT
Once you see a small taproot, plant the seed taproot-down in light, fluffy soil (¼–½ inches deep). Keep the soil gently moist, not wet.
4. CREATE A WARM HOME
Maintain a cozy 70–80°F environment. If indoors, keep them near a sunny window or under gentle grow lights.
5. PATIENCE + LIGHT TOUCH
Avoid overwatering. Let seedlings do their thing. A little light, warmth, and patience go a long way.
6. CARE + SUNSHINE
Treat your young plant like any other sun-loving houseplant—water when the top inch of soil feels dry, give it plenty of light, and watch it grow. If you move it outdoors, expect it to flower naturally in late summer to early fall.
