Sowing Instructions: Sow from late winter to early summer 1.5mm (1/16in) deep in good, free draining seed compost. Make sure it is moist but not wet and seal in a polythene bag until after germination which usually takes 14-21 days at 16-18C (60-65F).
Growing Instructions: Transplant when large enough to handle into 7.5cm (3in) pots. Later plant out 30cm (12in) apart into ordinary well drained soil in full sun.
Aftercare Instructions: A little winter protection of a layer of peat of leaf mould is helpful in cold areas.
