Sowing Instructions
| Sowing time: | February to March. |
|---|
Sow in pots or trays of moist seed compost and cover with a very 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 (3 inch) pots or trays.
Gradually acclimatise young plants to outdoor conditions for 10-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 23-30cm (9 to 12 inches) apart or plant into baskets and containers of good multi-purpose compost.
Aftercare Instructions
For best results, provide a moist, well-drained soil in full sun or part shade.
