An exquisite variety with masses of creamy-white fluted flowers above fine, blue-green foliage. Very hardy and easy to grow, making excellent, if short lived, cut flowers. Height: 20-25cm (8-10in).

Sowing Instructions

Sow from February to March 1.5mm (1/16in) deep in a good seed compost. Germination takes 5-10 days at 18-20C (65-70F). They can also be sown outdoors from March to May where they are to flower, when the ground becomes workable, covering the seed to a depth of 3mm (1/8in). Thin out the seedlings 30cm (12in) apart. An autumn sowing can also be made out of doors in September for overwintering, when they will flower in late spring /early summer.
