Planting Guide:

1. When to Plant: Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost or sow directly outdoors after the last frost.
2. Planting Location: Choose a sunny or partially shaded spot with well-draining soil. Lisianthus thrives in full sun but can tolerate light shade.
3. Soil Preparation: Ensure the soil is rich and well-draining. Add organic matter or compost for better fertility and soil structure.
4. Watering: Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid overwatering. Ensure the soil drains well to prevent root rot.
5. Maintenance: Deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms and prune any damaged or dead stems to maintain a tidy plant.
