WHEN TO SOW
January to March

WHERE TO SOW
Sow seed on the surface of lightly firmed, moist seed compost. Do not cover. Place inside a propagator or cover tray with polythene or glass in a warm place and keep at a temperature of around 24-27°C (75-80°F). After sowing, do not exclude light as the light helps germination which usually takes 15-60 days. Keep the surface of the compost moist, but not waterlogged.

WHAT TO DO NEXT
As soon as a few seedlings emerge, remove the cover but spray regularly with water to keep moist. When seedlings are large enough to handle, prick off into trays 5cm (2") apart. Gradually harden off in late April/ early May to plant outside 20cm (8") apart when the risk of frost has passed.

FLOWERS
June onwards

HEIGHT
30-45cm (12-18")

HANDY TIP
