CATHERINE CELOSIA
APPROXIMATE SEED COUNT PER PACKAGE: 200
All seed was grown in an open pollinated environment & harvested by hand here at Barefoot Ridge.
We cleaned, sorted and packaged all with care so you can share in the magic of growing all of these beautiful plants next season!
When to plant: Sow seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last spring frost, or directly outdoors after the frost. Celosia plants are heat-loving and can't tolerate cold temperatures or frost.
How to plant: You can sow seeds in trays, punnets, or jiffy pots. Fill them with a good quality seed-raising mix or soil starter pellets. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep, and lightly mist them with a spray bottle to cover them.
Where to plant : Place the pots or trays in a warm area with indirect sunlight, or use grow lights.
How to transplant: Transplant seedlings to the garden when they are large enough to handle and have their first true leaves, usually when they are 5–10 cm tall.
How to space: Space plants 9–18 inches apart, depending on the type.
How to care for : Celosia plants need regular watering and full sun, but avoid keeping the soil too wet.
How to encourage branching: Pinch back the plants when they are less than 8 inches tall. Use clippers to remove the top of the plant, leaving only 2–3 sets of leaves behind.
Celosia plants are easy to grow and require little maintenance. They can reseed themselves and return the next year in climates where they are grown as an annual. In warmer climates, they can be grown as a perennial.
