Here's how you can plant Allium Giganteum from seeds: 1. Planting Time: Plant the seeds in the late summer or early fall. This timing allows the seeds to experience a period of cold stratification, which can improve germination rates. 2. Container or Garden Bed: Decide whether you want to start the seeds indoors in containers or directly in an outdoor garden bed. Both methods can be successful, but starting indoors can give you better control over growing conditions. 3. Starting Indoors (Container Method): Fill seed trays or small pots with a well-draining seed-starting mix. Sow the Allium giganteum seeds on the surface of the soil, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Press the seeds gently into the soil, but do not bury them too deeply. Water the soil to ensure it's evenly moist but not waterlogged. 4. Starting Outdoors: Prepare a well-draining garden bed with loose soil and good sunlight exposure. Sow the seeds directly on the soil surface, following the spacing recommendations. Lightly press the seeds into the soil. Mulch the area with a thin layer of mulch to help retain moisture. 5. Cold Stratification (Optional): If you're planting the seeds outdoors and you live in a region with mild winters, consider placing the seed trays or pots in a plastic bag and refrigerating them for 4-6 weeks. This mimics the cold winter conditions the seeds need to break dormancy. 6. Germination: Allium giganteum seeds typically germinate in the spring, once temperatures start to warm up. If you're starting indoors, you can move the seedlings outdoors after the last frost date in your area. 7. Transplanting: When the seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them to their final growing location, whether in a garden bed or larger pots. Space them about 8-12 inches apart.
