Zebra Mallow Mix Seeds
For best results, direct-seed Zebra Mallow in early spring or late fall. Alternatively, you can start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before your last frost date.
Soak seeds overnight before sowing to aid germination. Press seeds lightly into the soil and cover, keeping the soil consistently moist until germination occurs, typically in 14-21 days.
After the last frost, transplant seedlings to a sunny location, spacing plants 1-2 feet (30-60 cm) apart. Following these steps will help you establish a beautiful display of striped blooms that attract hummingbirds and bees all season long.
