Description

The much improved Aphrodite selection of this highly versatile plant features uniform, compact plants which carry a profusion of striking blooms over an exceptionally long period in summer. Especially useful in containers.

Height: 8-10cm (3-4in)

Sowing Instructions

Sow March to April.

Germinate at 20-30C (68-86F) on the surface of a good free draining, damp seed compost. Do not cover seed. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag until after germination which usually takes 7-30 days. Do not exclude light at any stage, as this helps germination. Can also be sown direct outdoors in May.

Growing Instructions

Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into trays or 7.5cm (3in) pots. Grow on in cooler, well lit conditions for 10-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 30cm (12in) apart.
