TRANSPLANT(recommended): Sow 5-7 weeks before transplanting in either autumn or late winter. Surface sow seeds onto growing medium, but do not cover as light aids germination. Bottom water or mist to avoid covering the seed with displaced soil.
Transplant to soil blocks or cells 2-4 weeks after sowing. Harden off before transplanting.
Feverfew is a cold hardy annual or short-lived, perennial in cool temperate zones that do not freeze.
Autumn Planting: To achieve longer stems and earlier blooms, we recommend autumn planting (outdoors or covered if it regularly frosts). By overwintering young plants inside a high tunnel for spring harvest, you can attain very tall (up to 120cm) and abundant stems. Transplant 3-4 weeks before first frost. Spring Planting: For optimal stem and flower quality, treat spring-planted feverfew as an annual. Early spring transplanting will yield long stems and abundant blooms.
Direct sow: As soon as soil can be worked. Gently press the seeds into the soil, but do not cover as light aids germination. Keep soil surface moist until germination. Thin when seedlings have the first true leaves.
HARVESTING/VASE LIFE: Flowers are wilt prone so harvest in the coolest part of the day. Each spray contains a mass of buds. harvest when at least one flower is open. Harvest the entire plant at once for ease in handling. Place stems immediately into cool water after cutting. Can be stored in the cooler, but only for a short time. Expect a vase life of 7 days.
