Keep in mind when planting that Arctic Snow is thought of as half hardy, so protect with a row cover whenever the temperatures drop. Arctic Snow requires a sandy, loamy and silty soil with a ph of 6.1 - 8.5 - it grows best in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Arctic Snow about 1 days after your last frost date.

Transplanting Arctic Snow

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Arctic Snow is a half hardy plant.
