Sowing Indoors
Almost fill a seed tray with moist seed compost. Sow seeds thinly over the surface and lightly cover with a little more compost. Place in the warmth, 10-25°C and keep moist.
Growing On
Keep seedlings in a light position but shade from direct sunlight. When large enough to handle, transplant 5cm apart into trays of potting compost. Alternatively, transplant individually into 8cm pots.
Planting Out
Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions for 2-3 weeks before planting from April onwards. Earlier sowings will flower the same year; later sowings early the following year.
Aftercare
Keep well-watered, especially during spells of warm weather. Feed regularly during the flowering season and remove spent flowers to encourage a longer display of colour.
