When to Grow

Start Flames 6 to 8 weeks before your last frost date and transplant outdoors after the last frost. Surface sow the seed; it germinates in 10 to 14 days at an ideal germination temperature of 60 to 70°F. Because these dwarf plants top out around 1 foot, they fill the front of a bed or a container quickly once they are set out 6 to 12 inches apart. The mix reaches maturity in about 80 days, and as a cool-season flower it has a spring and fall planting window.
