Basket Flower Germination:
1) Use a commercial grade seed starting soil, and keep it “moist”, not wet.
2) Barely cover the seeds with a very thin layer of soil. Be sure to keep moist as to not let it dry out. Retain moisture by using a plastic humidity dome, or a piece of plastic will work just as well to retain moisture and humidity.
3) Use a heated propagator to keep the temperature around 70 degrees F during the day, while letting it drop to around 55-60 degrees at night. It is very important to have these temperature fluctuations as it mimics the natural conditions they are used to outdoors.
4) Expect germination anywhere from 7-20 days.
