Flowers Seeds
5 Packet Pack.
Mesembryanthemum flowers, also known as Livingstone daisies, are vibrant annuals cherished for their colorful blooms and drought tolerance.
1. Plant Mesembryanthemum seeds in the spring after the last frost date for summer and fall blooms. They thrive in warm weather and require ample sunlight.
2. Pick a sunny spot with well-drained soil for planting. Mesembryanthemums prefer full sun and tolerate poor soil conditions.
3. Loosen the soil to a depth of 6 to 8 inches and remove any weeds or debris. Ensure the soil is well-draining, as these flowers are susceptible to root rot in overly wet conditions.
4. Scatter Mesembryanthemum seeds thinly on the soil surface and cover lightly with soil. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs within 7 to 14 days.
5. Water sparingly once established, as these plants are drought-tolerant. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent waterlogged conditions.
6. Mesembryanthemums do not require heavy fertilization. A light application of balanced fertilizer in early spring is sufficient to support healthy growth.
7. Mulch around the plants to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. However, avoid mulching too close to the stems to prevent stem rot.
8. Remove spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming throughout the season and prevent self-seeding.
9. Mesembryanthemums are generally pest and disease-resistant. However, monitor for signs of aphids or fungal diseases, and treat promptly if detected.
10. Mesembryanthemums are sensitive to frost and are typically grown as annuals. In colder climates, they can be grown as perennials if protected from frost or brought indoors during winter.
