How to Grow

We recommend sowing the seed directly outdoors from mid-May to mid-June on well worked soil in a sunny site. Keep the area well watered during the germination period. However for earlier flowering, seed can be started indoors in a soil-less mix from mid-March to early April. Germinates at 21 C (70 F) in 7-10 days. Grow on under lights then harden off and transplant outside after the danger of frost has passed.
