Sow: March to April
Harvest: June to September
Sowing
Fill a small pot with compost, firming lightly with the base of another pot. Water well. Scatter a few seeds over the surface and cover with a thin layer of vermiculite or compost. Place in a propagator or cover the pot with cling film and keep warm at 15–20°C. Remove cling film as soon as seedlings emerge.
Growing On
Keep seedlings in a light position but shaded from direct sunlight. Water the compost when it feels dry to the touch.
Hardening Off / Planting Out
Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions over 2–3 weeks, then plant out from May onwards. Allow 25cm between clumps.
Advice
Grow in moist, well-drained soil in sun or part shade, or in pots using a good quality compost. Plants can be overwintered if desired. Can also be sown outside in late spring, either in well-prepared soil or in 30cm+ pots.
