Planting Steps:
— Remove plants from their box and packaging. Be mindful of any loose soil.
— Check if your Firefly needs watering. If the soil feels dry, water thoroughly but ensure proper drainage.
— Allow the plant time to adjust to its new environment, avoiding extreme temperatures.
— Trim off any dead or damaged foliage from shipping.
— Transplant into containers with high-quality potting mix.

Plant Caretaking:
— Sunlight: Firefly thrives in full sun, requiring 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth.
— Soil: Ideal for pots or containers, use a high-quality potting mix with good drainage.
— Watering: Let the soil dry out between waterings; don’t overwater.
— Fertilizer: Use a specialized petunia fertilizer like Jack’s Classic Petunia Feed.
— Temperature: Best in warm conditions; protect from freezing temperatures and extreme heat.
— Deadheading/Pruning: Regularly remove spent blooms and trim scraggly growth for tidier appearance.
— Spacing: Plant 6-8 inches apart to allow proper air circulation.

Bioluminescence:
— Firefly Petunia glows like moonlight, becoming brighter as the plant thrives, and softening as blooms mature. The glow is best viewed in dark environments and can be promoted with proper sunlight and routine fertilization.

Repotting and Indoor Care:
— Repotting helps with soil moisture and nutrient access. Firefly can thrive indoors with the right lighting conditions, requiring a PPFD of 400-2,000 µmol/m²/s for optimal bioluminescence.
