Tips & Advice:
Sowing Indoors
Sow on the surface of pre-watered seed compost, in pots or trays, lightly pressing into the surface. Place in a propagator or bag at around 20°C in shade and allow 2-4 weeks for germination. Remove lid or bag and keep in cooler, brighter conditions after germination.
Growing On
Transplant when seedlings are large enough to handle. Grow on in a sheltered spot outdoors, such as a cold frame or unheated greenhouse.
Planting Out
Plant out in full sun or part-shade, in well-drained soil. Also suitable for containers, raised beds or rockeries.
Aftercare
Remove faded flowers during summer to prolong blooming. Add grit to improve drainage where necessary. If germination is poor after a few weeks, keep cold (4°C) for 4 weeks and then bring back into warmth.
Advice
Late summer sowings will flower earlier, and more profusely, the following year.
