BEST TO START DIRECTLY IN THE GARDEN
Broadcast seed thinly, 2-3 inches apart, into a finely textured garden bed in full sun as early in spring as ground can be worked. Cover lightly, no more than 1/4 inch deep. Keep soil moist. Weed and water seedlings carefully. Thin to final spacing before they get crowded.
TO START EARLY INDOORS
Start indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost date. Sow seeds thinly in a container or individual pots of seed starting mix and cover very lightly. Keep evenly moist and provide a strong light source until seedlings are ready to plant outdoors. Transplant carefully to avoid disturbing roots.
GROWING NOTES
Space seedlings 6 to 8 inches apart when they are large enough to handle.
Seed Count: Approx. 45 - 60 / Weight: 750 mg

(Orlaya grandiflora)
Orlaya’s lovely pure white, lacy flower umbels resemble a cloud of small lacecap hydrangeas floating above ferny green foliage. While these frothy flowers may look delicate, they are actually very easy to grow, with a compact habit and seemingly endless blossoms from early summer to frost. Perfect for garden beds and a beauty in containers. The sparkling, airy blossoms are great in bouquets and dynamite pollinator flowers, feeding all types of bees, butterflies and diverse beneficial insects.
