Mr Fothergill’s Foxglove Warm Rose F1 Seeds

Description

Mr Fothergill’s Foxglove Warm Rose F1 Seeds, Compact, branching, ideal for pots. Allow plants to shed their seeds to get further plants in subsequent years.

Sow indoors, to flower the same year, 0.5cm deep, in a tray of compost. A temperature of 15-20°C. is ideal. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Transplant seedlings 5cm apart to other trays when large enough to handle. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions before planting out 25cm apart, when frosts are over. Or sow outdoors to flower the following year, in a seed bed, 0.5cm deep, into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Thin seedlings to 5cm apart before planting out to flowering positions in autumn. Plants are generally quite short lived.
