Care Instructions:

• Sow seeds indoors in early spring in trays of moist, free-draining seed compost, covering lightly with a thin layer of vermiculite or compost.
• Maintain a warm, bright environment for germination, then prick out and grow on the young seedlings in individual pots until the risk of frost has passed.
• Acclimatise the plants gradually to outdoor conditions before planting out into well-drained soil in full sun, watering regularly until they are fully established.
