The best-trailing geranium from seed, equal in quality to those available as expensive cutting raised types.

Sowing Instructions
| Sowing time: | February to March. |
|---|
| Sowing depth: | Sow seed on the surface of lightly firmed, moist seed compost in pots or trays and cover with a fine sprinkling of vermiculite. |
|---|
Place in a propagator or warm place, and keep at a constant temperature of between 20-25C (68-77F).
After sowing, do not exclude light as this helps germination.
Keep the surface of the compost moist but not waterlogged; germination will usually take 10-21 days.
Growing Instructions
When large enough to handle, transplant seedlings into 7.5cm (3in) pots or trays.
Gradually acclimatise plants to cooler conditions for a few weeks before planting out after all risk of frost, 30cm (12in) apart or plant into baskets and containers filled with a good multi-purpose compost.
Aftercare Instructions
For best results, provide a moist, well-drained soil in full sun or part shade.
