Mexican Cigar Plant Seeds - WHITE, FLOWERS SEED. This Cuphea Ignea plant has a variety of common names: Mexican Cigar Plant, Cigar Plant, Firecracker Plant, and Cigarette Plant. It is a showy evergreen perennial, but can also be grown as an annual in temperate areas using fresh flower seeds each year.
To get a jump start, start the Mexican Cigar Plant seeds indoors 6 weeks before the last expected frost. Press the flowers seeds into the surface of the soil but do not cover. Keep the flower seeds moist. Transplant outdoors once frost danger has passed. Seedlings can be pinched back to promote a bushy growth habit. For areas with a long growing season, the Cuphea Ignea seeds can be started directly outdoors in a weed-free prepared seedbed. Cigar Plants prefer rich, evenly moist soil that drains well and a position if full sun to partial shade.
