Mimulus – Tigrinus Mix

(1 customer review)

$1.99

A very bright flowering annual that is shade loving and early blooming. It is sometimes called “monkey flower” from its spotted, funnel shaped flowers said to resemble the grinning face of a monkey. A colorful, easy to grow addition to those hard to landscape shady areas.

Availability: 77 in stock

SOWING: Start seed indoors in pots or flats 6 to 8 weeks before last frost, do not cover seed. Press into soil and water carefully by misting. Seed can also be sown directly outdoors after last expected frost.

THINNING AND TRANSPLANTING: Transplant indoor started seedlings to 8 inches apart after danger of frost has passed.

GERMINATION: 10 to 14 days at 60 F. Keep soil moderately moist during germination.

Ed’s Special Advice: Mimulus grows best in a mostly shady area with rich soil kept fairly moist. Can also be grown indoors as a house plant or repotted prior to frost and brought inside. Do not let plants dry out. A great choice for containers. Indoor started seed will bloom very early combining well with pansies and primroses.
