🌱 Growing Instructions (Sowing Guide)

• Sowing Time: Best sown in Spring (Feb-March) or Monsoon (June-July) for Indian plains; can be grown year-round in mild climates.

• Soil: Prefers well-draining soil. Sandy or loamy soil is best. Avoid heavy clay that holds too much water.

• Sunlight: Needs Full Sun (6–8 hours daily) for maximum blooms. In shade, plants may become "leggy" and flop over.

• Sowing Depth: Sow seeds shallowly (just press into the soil or cover with a very thin layer of fine earth/vermiculite). They need some light to germinate.

  Germination: Expect sprouts in 7–14 days.

• Spacing: Plant seedlings 30–45 cm (12–15 inches) apart to allow for bushy growth and air circulation.

💡 Care Tips for "Navranga"

Pro Tip: To keep your Yellow Queen blooming longer, practice "deadheading". Simply snip off the old, faded flowers. This signals the plant to stop making seeds and start producing more flowers!

Always follow the sowing instructions provided on the product packet. Germination and crop performance may vary depending on climate, soil, season, irrigation and crop management.

Please confirm the variety, colour, pack size and suitability for your growing conditions before ordering. Product packaging may change without notice, while the product specifications remain the same.
