Growing Info: Seeds can sown under cover in Feb-May in pots or trays with seed compost and lightly covered with a thin layer. Keep at 21°C until germination, then prick out seedlings when they are big enough to handle. Grow on in cool and light conditions and once the risk of frosts have passed plant outside. Alternatively sow outside where they are to flower in May-Jun. |
|
Aftercare: Water well until established and pick/deadhead regularly to prolong the flowering period. Pinch out tips of the young plants to encourage bushier growth with more flowers. |
