What flowers are time to sow in January: the main rule for seedlings
Avid gardeners start preparing seeds of their favorite flowers for the new season as early as January.
Both annuals and perennials are sown in the first month of the year. These plants have one thing in common.
In January, flowers are sown for seedlings, and it takes at least 130 days from the moment of emergence to the appearance of the first flowers.
In this case, when it finally gets warmer, the plants will be completely ready to go to the flowerbed.
What flowers are sown in January
These plants are usually transplanted to open ground in mid- to late May. The list includes:
- Verbena hybrid;
- garden carnation;
- Carpathian bellflower;
- snapdragon;
- zonal pelargonium.
Plants that bloom earlier than 5 months after emergence are not suitable for early planting for seedlings.
Many gardeners make the mistake of sowing flowers that quickly produce buds. In this case, the plants will shed their flower buds before being transplanted to the flower bed and you will not be able to enjoy abundant flowering in the summer.
