Attractive, low compact bushy plants, covered in a masse of 5cm (2 inch) flowers in unique sky blue shades. Excellent as ground cover in a sunny border or planted in containers.
Sow in early spring 3mm (1/8in) deep at 21-27C (70-80F) in a good seed compost. Soaking the seed for 2 hours in cold water before sowing is helpful. Keep the soil damp but not wet, sealing in a polythene bag after sowing is helpful. Germination usually takes 5-14 days.
Seeds are very poisonous
