Keep in mind when planting that Green ice is thought of as tender, so it is imperative to wait until temperatures are mild before planting out of doors. Green ice tends to grow best in a soil ph of between 5.5 and 6.8 meaning it does best in weakly acidic soil.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Green ice about 14 days after your last frost date.

Transplanting Green ice

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