How to Plant Rock Sun Rose

  • Sow seeds directly into the garden, after the risk of frost has passed, by surface sowing and pressing seed into the soil.
  • Approximately 5,000 seeds covers 100 square feet, or 4 - 6 seeds per plant.
  • Space plants 12 - 18 inches apart in garden.

Care And Maintenance

  • Keep weeds under control during the growing season. Weeds compete with plants for water, space and nutrients, so control them by either cultivating often or use a mulch to prevent their seeds from germinating.
  • Mulches play a vital role in preserving soil moisture and ensuring consistent soil temperatures. When it comes to annuals, using organic mulch made from shredded leaves not only enhances the appearance of the bed but also enriches the soil as it decomposes over time. Remember to keep mulch away from the plant stems to avoid potential rot issues.
  • While plants are establishing, provide moderate amounts of water. Once established they are drought-tolerant.
  • Cut plants back after blooming to encourage new growth.
