Plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to apply water fairly sparingly. Keep in mind when planting that Avon Hybrid is thought of as half hardy, so remember to protect this plant from frosts and low temperatures. Ideally plant in loamy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 6.0 and 7.0 as Avon Hybrid likes to be in weakly acidic soil to neutral soil.

Growing Avon Hybrid from seed

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 3.12 inches (8.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.49 inches (1.25 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 8°C / 46°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Avon Hybrid about 60 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Avon Hybrid

Ensure that temperatures are mild (minimum night temperatures should be around 0°C / 32°F) and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Avon Hybrid is a half hardy plant.
