Step 1
Fill seed tray with seed starting mix to within 1/4" of the rim. Water soil until water drips from the bottom of tray. Allow soil to drain completely.

Step 2
Push seeds 1/4" into the soil and barely cover. Crocosmia seeds require light to germinate.

Step 3
Place seed tray in an area that receives lots of light, but out of direct sunlight, and remains 68 to 70 degrees F. Keep soil moist, not soggy, by misting with a plant-misting bottle. Seeds should germinate in two to four weeks.

Step 4
Transplant seedlings outdoors, in a sunny area, in late spring when temperatures are consistently above 65 degrees F.
