Hummingbird Trumpet Seeds Planting Instructions
Soil Preparation: Choose well-draining soil. Adding compost can help improve soil quality but it's not necessary as they can thrive in poor soil conditions.

Seed Preparation: Soak the seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting to help speed up germination.

Sowing Seeds: Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in moist soil. Lightly cover them with soil.

Watering: Water gently to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Light: Place in a location with full sunlight for at least 6-8 hours daily.

Temperature: Keep at a temperature of 65-75°F (18-24°C) until germination.

Germination: Seeds typically germinate in 2-4 weeks.

Transplanting: Once seedlings have a few sets of true leaves and are strong enough, transplant them to the garden. Space them about 12-18 inches apart to allow for growth.

Care:

Water regularly, especially during dry periods.
Provide full sunlight.
Mulch around plants to retain moisture and control weeds.
Prune as needed to encourage bushier growth and more blooms.
Hummingbird Trumpet plants are drought-tolerant once established and attract hummingbirds with their vibrant red flowers.
