Technical details:
Botanical name: Eschscholzia californica (Varietal Mix)
Seed quantity: 10 seeds
Plant type and growing cycle: Annual in almost all climates, but can become a perennial in areas with mild winters. Rapid growing cycle.
Plant height: It generally reaches a height of 20-50 cm, forming compact, flowering bushes.
Uses: Excellent for ornamental purposes in borders, flowerbeds, rock gardens, pots, and planters. Also suitable as a cut flower for delicate bouquets. Although it was once used in folk medicine as a mild sedative, cultivation is recommended for decorative purposes only.
Organoleptic characteristics: Characterized by cup- or bell-shaped flowers, with silky, glossy petals that bloom in a wonderful mix of sunny colors (mainly bright yellow, orange, cream, and occasionally red or pink). The foliage is finely divided, a characteristic bluish-green (glaucous) color.
Hardiness and Origin: Exceptionally hardy and drought-resistant, it tolerates summer heat well. Native to California and the southwestern regions of the United States.
Sowing time: Direct sowing is ideal in spring, after the last risk of frost. In regions with mild winters, it can also be sown in autumn for earlier flowering.
Harvest/Flowering Period: Blooms profusely from late spring throughout summer and often into early autumn, providing continuous blooms if faded flowers are removed.
Optimal conditions for germination: Prefers soil temperatures between 15°C and 20°C. Germination can benefit from light, so it is recommended to cover the seeds only with a very thin layer of soil or not at all.
Soil Type: Adapts well to a wide range of soils, as long as they are well-drained. It prefers sandy or poor soils rather than rich and heavy ones.
Recommended exposure: Requires full sun for optimal flowering and to best develop its bright colors.
Germination Times: Seeds generally germinate within 7-21 days.
Pot or ground cultivation: Extremely versatile, it lends itself magnificently both to cultivation in the open ground, creating carpets of flowers, and in pots, planters and hanging baskets.
Quality Specifications: Non-GMO (not genetically modified) seeds with a guarantee of high germination, selected to ensure maximum success in your cultivation.
