Growing Information

Sowing Information
Sow thinly direct into finely raked, moist warm soil, where the plants are to flower at a depth of 13mm (0.5″) covering the seed lightly. Germination takes 10-14 days. Thin seedlings in final stages to a final spacing of 10-15cm (4-6″) apart, removing any competing weeds at the same time. Choose a sunny position. Alternatively, to flower the following year, sow directly outside during August-September.
