Sowing Instructions
| Sowing time: | Indoors 8-10 weeks before planting out after all danger of frost has passed |
|---|
Sow in pots or trays of moist seed sowing mix and cover with a very fine sprinkling of sowing mix or 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 mix moist but not waterlogged; germination will usually take 3-21 days.
Growing Instructions
When large enough to handle, transplant seedlings into 7.5cm (3in) pots or trays.
Gradually acclimatize to outdoor conditions for 10-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 30cm (12in) apart.
Aftercare Instructions
For best results, provide a light, well-drained soil in full sun.
Fertilize monthly, water when soil becomes dry and deadhead regularly to keep plants blooming well.
