To do an early planting, use moist seed compost and starter trays to sow Catananche caerulea seeds indoors. Sow the Cupid's Dart seeds on the surface, and cover with moistened soil lightly the flower seeds. Keep the seeds moist until they germinate. When seedlings are sufficiently large to handle transplants into 3 inch pots. Hold them in a position of light but not in direct heat. Gradually harden the Dart plants of Cupid to outside conditions for 10-15 days until they are planted in their permanent position after the frost season has passed.
