Sowing Instructions:

 

Sow seeds indoors from February to April in seed trays filled with fine compost. Do not cover, as light is needed for germination. Maintain a temperature of 18–21°C and keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.

 

Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots and harden them off before planting outdoors after the last frost. Space plants 15–20 cm apart in a sunny, sheltered location.

 

For direct sowing, plant seeds in well-prepared soil from May onwards. Water regularly to ensure strong, bushy growth and deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming.
