Uniquely coloured, large, lime and purple bicoloured flowers on dwarf, compact plants. Well branched and bushy, these gems lend themselves extremely well to container growing. Height: 20-30cm (8-12in).

Germinate February to May at 20-30C (68-86F) on the surface of a good free draining, damp seed compost. Do not cover seed. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag until after germination which usually takes 7-21 days.

Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into trays or 7,5cm (3in) pots. Grow on in cooler, well lit conditions for 10-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 30cm (12in) apart.

Harmful if eaten
