TO START EARLY INDOORS
Start seeds indoors 4 to 6 weeks before last frost date. Sow seeds 1 inch apart in a container of seed starting mix and cover very lightly. Keep moist but not soggy and provide a strong light source. Vanity germinates best in cool temps between 68-70°F (20°-21°C). Be patient; seeds germinate slowly over 14-28 days. When seedlings are about 2 to 3 inches tall, and night temperatures are above 50°F (10°C), acclimate to outdoor conditions and plant 12-15 inches apart.
TO START DIRECTLY OUTDOORS
Sow in well-worked beds after night temperatures reach 50°F (10°C). Plant seeds 4 inches apart and cover very lightly. Keep soil evenly moist. Thin the sturdiest seedlings 12-15 inches apart, giving plants room to mature.
GROWING NOTES
Branching, compact Vanity grows 2 1/2 feet tall and wide with vivid flower clusters that bloom hard all summer. Pollinators of every kind love visiting these nectar-rich flowers. Vanity is also long-lasting and decorative in bouquets.
