Sowing Instructions
Sow February to June, or indoors out of season. Sow seed on the surface of free draining sowing mix and cover with about 6mm (žin) of sowing mix. Place in a propagator at 20-25C (68-77F) until germination, about 14-21 days.
Growing Instructions
Transplant when large enough to handle into 7.5cm (3in) pots and maintain temperature at 15C (60F). Plant into containers, pots on the windowsill, or acclimatise plants for a few days if planting outdoors in a sunny, fertile garden once frost risk has passed. Allow 25cm (10in) between plants.
