Plant Centella seeds in early spring, from March to April, after the last frost. Choose a location that receives partial shade or filtered sunlight, as Centella prefers indirect light. The soil should be rich in organic matter, well-draining, and slightly acidic to neutral (pH 6.0 to 7.0). Water the plants regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Centella typically begins to flower in late summer to early fall, around August to September.
2.Summer Planting Method:
For summer planting, sow Centella seeds in late June to early July. Select a partially shaded spot with indirect sunlight to prevent leaf scorching. Use a well-draining soil mix enriched with compost. Maintain a consistent watering schedule, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged. With this method, Centella may start to flower in late summer to early fall, from September to October, depending on environmental conditions.
3.Autumn Planting Method:
In regions with mild winters, you can plant Centella seeds in autumn, around September to October. Opt for a location with partial shade or filtered sunlight. Prepare well-draining soil rich in organic matter and maintain a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Water the soil regularly, keeping it moist. Centella will generally flower in the following summer, around June to July, as the plant establishes itself over the winter months.
4.Indoor Planting Method:
When growing Centella indoors, sow seeds in late winter to early spring, from February to March. Use a well-draining potting mix and provide bright, indirect light, such as from a south-facing window or under grow lights. Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Indoor plants may start to flower in late summer, around August, if provided optimal light and care.
5.Container Planting Method:
For container planting, choose a pot with drainage holes and fill it with a well-draining soil mix enriched with compost. Plant Centella seeds in early spring, once the frost risk has passed. Place the container in a location with partial shade or filtered sunlight. Water regularly to keep the soil moist, ensuring there is no waterlogging. Centella in containers typically begins to flower in late summer to early fall, around August to September, providing vibrant green foliage and delicate blooms.
