Matilda Ptilotus Seeds
Start Matilda Ptilotus seeds indoors 10-12 weeks before your last frost date for the best results.

Transplant seedlings after your last frost date into a sunny location with well-draining soil. Space plants 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.
