Description
Start the seeds indoors from March-June.
Sow the seeds thinly on the surface of moist, seed compost.
Dont cover as light aids germination.
Keep at a temperature of 15-18c until germination occurs.
Seeds will usually germinate within 7-10 days.
Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots.
Grow on in cooler conditions with good light.
Gradually acclimatise the plants to outdoor conditions before planting out.
Plant out after the risk of frost has passed into their final growing position.
Space plants 30-40 cm apart.
Water regularly during dry spells until established.
The foliage colour intensifies in cool autumn weather.
