  • Partial Sun

  • High

Try to plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water often. Keep in mind when planting that Balfiesala is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Ideally plant in loamy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 6.1 and 6.5 as Balfiesala likes to be in weakly acidic soil.

Growing Balfiesala from seed

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 11.7 inches (30.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.06 inches (0.15 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 24°C / 75°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Balfiesala about 56 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Balfiesala

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Balfiesala is a tender plant.
