Chia (Salvia hispanica) - 250 Seeds • Heirloom • Non-GMO • American Grown Seeds • Annual Herb • USDA Zones: 8-12 Chia seeds have gained popularity in recent years due to their nutritional benefits, which include being high in fiber, protein, and Omega-3 fatty acids. These small seeds are harvested from Salvia hispanica, an annual herb in the mint family. They can be eaten raw, soaked in juice, added to porridge and pudding, or included in baked goods and smoothies. In addition to being a superfood, the chia plant is quite easy to grow and can also serve as an ornamental plant with its beautiful purple flowers. GROWING INSTRUCTIONS: Chia plants thrive in full sun and require no stratification. Sow the seeds at a depth of 1/4 inch in well-draining soil, and keep the soil consistently moist during germination. Space the plants 12-18 inches apart, with 18-24 inches between rows. Chia is drought-tolerant but will benefit from regular watering, especially during the flowering period. • FREE SHIPPING on all orders of $35 or more. • Flat Rate shipping no matter how many seeds you order. • Growing instructions included on each seed packet.
