Sowing Instructions

Sowing time: September to May.

Sow seeds on the surface of lightly firmed, moist seed compost in pots or trays and cover with a sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place container in a propagator or seal inside a polythene bag and keep at a temperature of between 15-20ºC (59-68ºF). After sowing, do not exclude light as this helps germination. Keep the surface of the compost moist but not waterlogged; germination usually takes 7-21 days.

Aftercare

For best results, provide a well-drained soil in full sun.

Overwinter September sowings in a cold frame and plant out the following spring.
