$5 · Bachelor button seeds, 10 grams for $5, a few available

Perennial flower (not annual like it says online). Full sun. Sow ¼ inch deep, 2 inches apart. Cover lightly with soil. Water gently to keep the soil moist until the seeds sprout. Once 2 sets of true leaves appear thin back to a density of 1 to 2 plants every 12 inches. Thinned plants can be transplanted to other parts of the garden or tucked into containers for a pop of color on the deck. Late spring to early summer bloomers. Fall-seeded bachelor’s buttons will grow larger and have longer stems and bigger blooms when they flower in mid-spring. Will appreciate afternoon shade, otherwise, give them some watering when needed in the hot weather or summer. North pick up
