Sow: February to July
Flowering: July to September
Sowing
Almost fill a seed tray with moist seed compost. Sow seeds thinly over the surface and lightly cover them with a little more compost. Place in the warmth, 15–20 °C, and keep moist. Higher temperatures may inhibit germination.
Growing On
Keep seedlings in a light position but shade from direct sunlight. When large enough to handle, transplant 5 cm apart into trays of potting compost. Alternatively, transplant individually into 8 cm pots.
Hardening Off / Planting Out
Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions for 2–3 weeks before planting when the risk of frost has passed. Allow 45 cm between plants. Water well until established.
Aftercare
Trim back after flowering to maintain a compact habit.
Advice
Early sowings will flower for the first time in the same year as sowing.
