Keep in mind when planting that Red Flowering is thought of as half hardy, so it will need protecting in periods of cold weather. Ideally plant in loamy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 5.5 and 6.5 as Red Flowering likes to be in weakly acidic soil.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Red Flowering about 42 days before your last frost date.
