Sowing Instruction
Thinning
When seedlings are large enough to handle, thin to allow proper development and prevent overcrowding.
Advice
Late summer and autumn-sown seedlings may benefit from cloche or fleece protection when hard frosts threaten. These plants generally bloom earlier the following summer than spring-sown ones.

Sowing Instruction

- Sow seeds thinly in pre-watered soil in full sun, lightly covering with a little more soil.
- Sowings in semi-circular lines create a natural ‘drift’ effect.
