Growing Hints:
Sow seeds directly in the garden in fall or early spring in a sunny location where soil stays consistently moist (not wet). Germination takes about three weeks. Seedlings should be thinned to 6" apart. If soil is nutrient rich, fertilizing should not be necessary.
Interesting Facts:
Also called the poached egg flower, Meadow Foam is currently being grown in the Pacific Northwest as an alternative crop. The seeds contain light, high-quality oil suitable for use in the cosmetic industry. The oil also has potential industrial applications as a biodegradable lubricant.
