A delightful variety bedecked with glistening pure white flowers which have just a touch of pink when in bud. Lower in growth and more bushy than the old varieties this makes a superb border subject which can even make a temporary flowering hedge. Flowers mid summer to autumn. Height 21-30in.

Sow from late winter to early spring 1.5mm (1/16in) deep in John Innes Seed Compost. Make sure that the compost is moist but not wet and seal in a polythene bag until after germination which usually takes 15-21 days at 21C (70F).

Transplant when large enough to handle into 8cm (3in) pots. Grow cool and later plant out 40cm (18in) apart into an ordinary but not rich soil in sun and some shelter.
