Planting and Care Instructions (From this Label)
After all danger of frost has passed, in a sunny location, sow 5 seeds spaced evenly over a hill 9-12 inches tall and 2 feet across. When plants are 3 inches tall, thin by cutting all but the 3 strongest seedlings per hill. To avoid weeding, mulch heavily around plants and in the rows.
