Germinate at 15-20C (60-68F) on the surface of a good free draining, damp seed compost. Apply a fine sprinkling of vermiculite, just covering the seed. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag until after germination which usually takes 10-15 days. Take care not to provide too high a temperature, as this can prevent germination. Growing Instructions Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into 7.5cm (3in) pots. Grow on for 10-15 days before planting out 23cm (9in) apart. Overwinter summer sowings in a coldframe and plant out the following spring. Aftercare Instructions Prefers a moist, well drained soil in full sun or semi shade.
