Sowing Instructions

Sow March to April on the surface of any moist seed compost. Do not cover the seed. Place in a propagator or warm place, and keep at a constant temperature of between 15-20C (59-68F). After sowing, do not exclude light as this helps germination. Keep the surface of the compost moist but not waterlogged; germination usually takes 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, 23cm (9 inches) apart.

Aftercare

For best results, provide a rich, well-drained soil in full sun.
