Tips & Advice:

Sowing Indoors

Level fill a module seed tray firming with the base of another tray. Water well with a fine rose. Sow seeds thinly and cover with a thin layer of fine compost or vermiculite. Leave in a warm room, around 20°C and keep moist.

Growing On

Once the seeds have germinated they can be moved to a slightly cooler spot (10-15°C). When large enough to handle, transplant individually to 8cm pots of potting compost.

Hardening Off / Planting Out

Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions for 2-3 weeks before planting out when danger of frost has passed. Allow 45cm between plants if planting into the garden. Alternatively, plant into a patio container, minimum 30cm diameter. Perovskia like a sunny spot, in well-drained soil. Water well in dry weather, especially while establishing.

Advice

Early sowings will flower the same year; later sowings will bloom earlier the following year.
