Tips & Advice:
Sowing Indoors
Almost fill a seed tray with moist seed compost. Sow seeds thinly over the surface, lightly covering with a little more compost. Place in the warmth, 22-25°C and do not exclude light.
Growing On
Keep seedlings in a light position, but shade from direct sunlight. When large enough to handle, transplant into 8-10cm pots of potting compost.
Hardening Off / Planting Out
Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions for 2-3 weeks before planting out in full sun when the danger of frost has passed. Allow 30cm between plants. Do not allow to dry out, but take care not to over-water. Feed plants regularly with a liquid fertiliser.
Advice
Also suitable for planting in containers. Ptilotus thrives in sun and hot weather. This variety also makes an excellent cut flower, on its own or in mixed bouquets.
