Sow outdoors where they are to flower.
Prepare the ground well and rake to a fine tilth before sowing.
When large enough to handle, thin out seedlings to 23cm (9 inches) apart.
Alternatively, sow at 18-20C (64-68F) in 7.5cm (3in) pots and transplant when large enough to handle.
Gradually acclimatise plants to cooler conditions for a few weeks before planting out after all risk of frost, 30cm (12in) apart in full sun.
