Sowing Instructions

|---|
Sow on the surface of lightly firmed, moist seed compost in pots or trays.
Cover with a very fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite.
Keep at a temperature of between 15 to 20C (59 to 68F).

Gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions for 10 to 15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 30cm (12 inches)apart.
