Tips to Grow Nolana

  1. Arrange good quality Nolana seed.
  2. The soil should be well-drained soils, Loamy, or Sandy.
  3. To start Nolana plants from seed, sow seeds in the spring—about 4 to 6 weeks before the last expected frost.
  4. Place the seeds in starter trays and cover them with a thin layer of soil or sand. Keep the medium moist until germination occurs.
  5. When the plants have achieved a few inches of growth, thin seedlings are 4 to 8 inches apart to give the root systems room to grow.
  6. Provide as much light as possible to avoid the seedlings becoming leggy. After the last frost, transplant to your desired outdoor location.
