Germinate at 70 °F/21°C. soil temp. Sow 1/4 in/6 mm deep, cover seed lightly with fine soil and scatter seeds thinly in rows for stockier seedlings. Grow at 60°F/16°C. Thin seedlings 1 in/25 mm apart. Transplant without disturbing roots outdoors about June 10th, 8 in/20 cm apart.

DIRECT SOW: Sow outdoors in late April or by May 5th. as above. Thin seedlings 8 in/20 cm apart. Baby Blue Eyes is an excellent rock garden variety as well as an attractive cut flower. Nemophila like well drained soil with semi shade and areas with cool 60°F/16°C night temps. Do not overwater.
