  • High

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

Growing Amy 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 Amy about 14 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Amy

Amy is hardy, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
