A full sun position will ensure your plant thrives and remember to water often. Amish is generally regarded as a hardy plant, so this plant will survive close to or on freezing temperatures. Amish needs a soil ph of 6.1 to 7.5 (weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil).

Growing Amish from seed

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 1.88 feet (58.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.5 inches (1.27 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 21°C / 70°F.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Amish about 14 days before your last frost date.
