Planting Instructions
How to Plant Bishop Flower
When to Plant Bishop Flower Seeds
Planting outdoors, sow directly 1-2 weeks before the final frost date of the season. Sow 6-8 weeks before the final frost date when starting indoors. Continue to sow seeds every 14-21 days into late spring for a continued flush of bloom.
Where to Plant Bishop Flower Seeds
Plant in soils that have access to full sun (6-8 hours of sun per day), with well-draining soil. Bishop's flower is tolerant of many soil types, and can tolerate partial shade (4-6 hours of sun per day).
How to Plant Bishop Flower Seeds
Sow your seeds directly onto the surface of the soil. Compress seeds into the soil no deeper than 1/4th of an inch, but do not cover. Seeds require exposure to light in order to germinate properly.
How to Care for Bishop Flower
Bishop's Flower is very easy to care for. Keep your growing area and sprouting growth moist until the Bishop's Flower is fully established. Deadheading spent flowers will prevent seed drop, and remove growth that dies back at the end of summer to keep the yard tidy. This plant can be toxic to animals, so be sure to plant in areas that are free of pets.

Yes! The non-invasive "Queen Anne's Lace."
If you're like most people, you think the roadside weed, Queen Anne's Lace, is pretty, but you may hear it's invasive, and you bet it is. It's a weed in all 50 states. But if you want the same look without the permanent plants of QAL, plant this one. It looks very much the same, but is an annual, so will be dead and gone next year. This is the one florists use, and a snap to grow.
