A sumptuous blend of 5cm (2 inch) blooms in many rich Victorian shades of red, rose and pink, all with a delicious fragrance. Bushy, neat, free flowering plants, ideal for adding a touch of yesteryear to summer borders and containers.
Sow February to April at 18-20C (64-68F) on the surface of a good free draining, damp seed compost. Cover with a very fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag until after germination which usually takes 7-14 days. Do not exclude light as this helps germination.
Prefers any well drained soil in full sun. Flowers summer.
