Planting Instructions
Cleome seeds are easy to start and low maintenance. They are an annual that is planted in the early spring to mid-summer. Cleomes, or Spider Plants, will bloom until the first frost. In a windy area, they may require staking; they are disease and insect free. Butterflies and hummingbirds love to feast on cleomes.
Cleome seeds may be started indoors or outdoors. They grow best in full sun; seeds will germinate in 8 to 12 days if temperatures are 70 to 80F.
Seeds should be planted 1/8th inch deep and left uncovered. Space 3 inches between seeds, and space 18 inches between rows. Thin to 18 to 24 inches apart when plants are 3 inches tall.
Cleome plants started indoors can be transplanted at 21 to 25 days.

Dramatic Show from August to Frost
I got the seeds from Eden Brothers in 2017 and this my second year growing this Beautiful plant. This year I grew it successfully from the seeds I saved last year. Indeed the weather needs to be warm enough for the seeds to germinate. Afterwards, I did some thinning and give each plant at least 3 inch of space as they grow several branches. It doesn’t require many plants to have a dramatic show. They are bright, delicate and dramatic at the same time. This will be only annual plant I will grow every year going forward. Love it.
