Tips & Advice:

Sowing Indoors

Almost fill a seed tray with moist seed compost. Sow seeds thinly over the surface, and lightly cover them with a little more compost. Place in the warmth, 15-20°C and keep moist. Higher temperatures may inhibit germination.

Growing On

Keep seedlings in a light position but shade from direct sunlight. When large enough to handle, transplant 5cm apart into trays of potting compost. Alternatively, transplant individually into 8cm pots.

Hardening Off/Planting Out

Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions for 2-3 weeks before planting when the risk of frost has passed. Allow 45cm between plants. Water well until established.

Aftercare

Trim back after flowering to maintain a compact habit.

Advice

Early sowings will flower for the first time in the same year as sowing.
