Torenia Seeds | Lemon Drop
How to Grow
Torenia needs a warm climate and well-drained, compost-enriched soil. Because Torenia flower seeds are very tiny and slow-growing, it's best to start them indoors ten weeks before the last expected frost. Cover the Torenia seeds lightly with soil and water from the bottom to avoid dislodging the flower seeds. Transplant the seedlings outdoors at six to eight inch intervals when they are large enough to handle.
